Description ¶
NSS does not seem to like having MAKEFLAGS="-j 2" set since the Makefile depends on files that it creates itself. If multiple threads are running, one thread may be looking for a file that the other thread has not finished creating yet.
I am not certain about this, but I thought someone would want to check it out.

I don't think we *ever* recommend peopel to set MAKEFLAGS. So, I don't think this belongs in the book. But I think you should record this in the wiki.
Well... That's really what I was trying to do, but I don't seem to have edit permissions for the Wiki. Is this standard, and if so, may I request permissions?

Yes. Try it again. Unfortunately, if we leave it open, we get spam. I'm liberal on giving permissions though.

Thank you kindly. I really appreciate this project, because personally, I find it quite fun, useful, and informative. I wish to contribute as much as possible to keep this going.

Closing this ticket as we do not want to set precedence on finding out which packages cannot build multi-threaded.
