I've committed an "update" to pkg_rr which has following new options:
-D <bool>: invokes make with USE_DESTDIR=bool, Default: NO, turn off, set 
bool=OFF
-j <jobs>: invokes make with MAKE_JOBS=jobs

And I've fixed an issue, which causes pkg_rr loops forever on the same 
package when there's no origin for the current package to replace. No that 
causes a failure.

This change could be reverted, of course - but I thought it might help to 
calm down this discussion.
