Does it happen for you with a non-parallel (i.e. without using
"make -j") build? If so, can you reproduce it by running the last
command that "make" runs by hand? If you can, then hopefully it will be
easy to diagnose, e.g. by minimising the code being read.

Hmm, no patch since then jumps out at me as a likely cause. If anyone's
able to narrow down which patch cause it then that may also be useful.

Thanks! I'll take a look.
