Hi!

If one uses "make -j<n>" on cmd.exe one sees that stdout and stderr
are terribly messed up, which makes it impossible to identify compiler
error messages, or have an IDE parse the make output.

Is that a known issue and/or has somebody an idea how to fix this?

I've looked a bit into the code and tried to solve it with semaphores
when accessing stdout /stderr but i guess that's not the way it should
be?

Besides that if one would integrate Troy Runkels jobserver patch there
would be several subprocesses writing to stdout without having control
on when this would happen?

Regads,
