This error is completely normal since we do not build the multi
threaded libraries.

Ok. The suggestion you made about restarting spkg-install being called
repeatedly does not work since you either need to call configure with
a special parameter or call make again. The restart only happens up to
five times - anything else and your machine is misconfigured.

Ok.

Where are the build failure logs?
