Setting max-jobs to 0 leads to:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix build: error: build failed: unable to start any build; either increase=
 `--max-jobs' or enable distributed builds
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

That=E2=80=99s expected because it really asks for zero locally running bui=
ld
jobs (something that is useful, for instance, on a Hydra front-end.)

Commit f6526eb addresses that in a simple way.

Thanks,
