It's an opt-in flag that allows to display where the build is in
terminal window titles. The fact that it's opt-in and likely unknown
makes it very low-value, and the fact that it was added in an era where
builds were not very well parallelized made it have a meaning, but now
that builds are parallelized, its meaningfulness is diminished.

Let's just remove it.
