I explicitly use the build command "make" because of that, but I still see four
instances of make running, as well as six instances of bash. This is with
message "make VERBOSE=1 test_noninteractive in the installed examples build
tree" as the last visible text.
Not at all sure what this means, the information I get from the task manager
does not reveal much about what these processes are actually doing (like in
which directory etc.)
