This makefile causes no problems for me under OpenBSD, running either version 3.80 or 3.81. Yes, I ran it many times. You should have included the actual operating system that you're using in your bug report. You should also check whether you can reproduce this with GNU make version 3.81, which has been out for over 18 months. > My guess is that as I calculate values for some > variable only on fly so may be when run with -j option, two threads try > to calculate/access the same variable and that causes a crash. GNU make does not use threads, so this explanation cannot be correct.
