Hello!

The change to enable incremental builds by default unfortunately currently
breaks Rust builds on sparc64. I have observed this problem for building
both Firefox and the Rust compiler and it looks like this [1]:

error: incremental compilation: could not create session directory lock file: 
No such process (os error 3)

error: internal compiler error: unexpected panic

note: the compiler unexpectedly panicked. this is a bug.

note: we would appreciate a bug report:

note: rustc 1.24.1 running on sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu

error: Could not compile `build_helper`.

I have not yet figured out what the problem is, but I can work-around the
issue by setting CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 in the build environment.

Would it be possible to disable incremental builds on sparc64 by default
until this issue has been resolved? I assume that the problem is that
the incremental builds are not 100% thread-safe yet and might cause issues
on SPARC servers which often have many CPUs available.

Thanks,
Adrian
