Comment(by drkirkby):
Two questions:
* Will this impact the speed of building singular?
* Is the observed problem only on OS X?
* Do you have any idea why singular has built in parallel for some time
without issue, but as soon as the packages are tested in parallel, so a
problem arises?
I'm just wondering if this might not be better in something like
{{{
if [ "x`uname`" = xDarwin ] ; then
MAKEFLAGS=
export MAKEFLAGS
fi
}}}
so it only slows down on OS X. If we find there's issues on other
platforms (and we soon will I think if there are any), then revisit this.
I think your parallel building is a great idea, but it would be a shame to
see the benefits eroded by having to get various packages to build
serially, if they built ok in parallel before.
As for Leif's comment about the Solaris changes, I'd just let them die.
This package is such a mess, any attempt at reason will lead to insanity.
If its building on Solaris with those fixes missing, we might as well
leave them missing.
