It resulted from "make install" being invoked from a Makefile, where the overall make was run in parallel, and then a last step did this: $(MAKE) install It inherited the -j setting from the top-level make invocation. I checked the install docs, and didn't see where it warned away from doing a parallel make install, fyi. The automake aspect of this bug seems like a bug in the way automake handles certain install rules in a multi-lib setting. Certain rules should only be run once, and not re-run in the multi-lib'd directories. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=42980
