Has anybody found something like this? I don't recall any "make -j1 install"

I've never used more than -j1 when installing, I regard it as not
worth the risk. Similarly, for tests (unless somebody has noted
that they work ok like that).
There is/was a ticket raised against openssl for 7.10, noting that
parallel install sometimes failed.

Yes, doing "-j1" for all packages is a good choice, as it is running all
available tests before a "release" build. Long build, but no doubts
about how it was build. (I think LFS SBUs are also calculated for -j1)
In the book there are several "make -j1" for compiling or "make -j1
check" for testing clearly marked. However I haven't found any "make -j1
install" yet. This is what I found unusual in this package.
Anyways, looks like both Arch as well as Gentoo have chosen to build
this package forcing -j1 and ignoring any user defined MAKEFLAGS. They
probably had this issue before.
Thanks!
Alz.
