No.
But now that you've mentioned it, I recall that rules with multiple
targets will be executed once per target with -j (at least with GNU
make). This can be worked around by creating a psuedo-target to
serialize the process. I've confirmed that simops.h is either a
the sole target of a rule (most of the cases), or that there is a
pseudo-target (v850).
