I don't have any gripe ! I just wanted to help a good (at least
as I thought) project ...
About the other thing:
This is GNU Make version 3.79.1, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath.
On Debian/Woody Linux. So well, this make runs these things in
parallel.
Also even if it would be make's fault I don't see what my patch makes
worse. But if you don't want to apply it, you don't apply it.
Later, Klaus
