This looks good to me.

I came acro= ss another problem: During parallel builds (the norm nowadays), several lin= es of downloading get mixed, or even the progress numbers are mixed with li= nes of output from the compiler etc.. I do not see what to do about it (exc= ept for clearing out a complete line, so there is no output trailing after = the percentage), and the progress indicator can still be used to indicate p= roblems when nothing progresses.
