The above report is incorrect, it just breaks always, I'm sorry. I probably run configure so automatically that I accidentally made it work. It breaks because make starts making `scratch', `config' and `myself' simultaneously. And that appears to be due to the first targets to make vim are: scratch config myself As these targets overwrite the same files with different content, it breaks one way or another. Explicite configure bootstraps the build system and thus makes -jN safe for normal compilation. > and fix it... Unfortunately my view of how a build system should work is incompatible. I can tell when something breaks and hopefully I can figure out how it happens, but I have no idea what fixed means here. Yeti -- http://gwyddion.net/
