 I have been building releases with WORLD_FLAGS=-j4 successfully on my
 SMP box with a Dec 1 kernel for the past week. Yesterday I upgraded the
 kernel and with the new kernel did a make world -j4 which completed with
 no problems. And afterwards a make release with WORLD_FLAGS=-j4 also
 finished with no problems. So -current isn't totally broken. It might
 be timing related. My machine is an old dual 266MHz PII.

How many processors does your machine have?
