It is:

  $ make clean
  $ make
  $ make syntax-check -j
  ...
  help2man: can't get `--help' info from man/coreutils.td/coreutils
  Try `--no-discard-stderr' if option outputs to stderr
  prohibit_inttostr_without_use
  prohibit_jm_in_m4
  make: *** [man/coreutils.1] Error 127
  make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

This only goes away without -j here.

Otherwise +1.

Thanks & have a nice day,
Berny
