16 Ditto for setting MAKEOPTS to -j1. Every once in a while, somebody
17 runs into a problem that is solved by it. I finally decided to let the
18 builds take a little bit longer, in exchange for saving me problems with
19 "unreproducable errors". This setting does not affect the final binary;
20 just how long it takes to build.
