Depends what you're trying to do.

One thing that can be helpful is to redirect the output to both the
screen and to a logfile:

$ make whatever 2>&1 | tee name-of-log-file

If you want to start compiling on another machine, then log back in
later, you can log into the remote machine, run "screen", and start
the build. Then you "detach" from screen (control-A D, if memory
serves), and the compilation process keeps going. You can reattach
later.
