-DBATCH ? I'm not aware of there being any use of that symbol.
Do you have a documentation reference for it so that I could
read about it?

Hmm. That usually means one (or both) of two things was involved
in the failure:

A) a build race where something is not (fully) ready when
   it is used

B) running out of resources, such as RAM+SWAP

But, as I understand, you were able to use a .cpp and
.sh file pair that had been produced to repeat the
problem on the RPi3B --and that would not have been a
parallel-activity context.

Well, hopefully you will not be stuck with -j1 builds in
the future as well.
