I agree with you, that it should only take one invocation. In my experience, 
it's not Qt, it's the code. Though if what Thiago suggested, make -kjN || make 
-j1 is what they are using on the COIN servers, it might be why they have not 
seen it yet.  

Meanwhile, report that spot (if you haven't already). I've not tried compiling 
5.12 yet, just 5.11.3. What about your experience with 5.11.3?
