And yet another problematic package, jpilot fails to install correctly when built in parallel mode for the same reason.
Even if detecting OpenBSD is not easy, I don't understand why this test is hardcoded. In general, most autoconf/automake tests DO set a cache entry, and you can later rely on that entry. This can be useful for package builders: we could very easily force configure to use mkdir -p, if we know we've got a safe one. But no, this test is done again and again for each configure entry. As a work-around, I can force mkdir_p='mkdir -p' on the make command-line, but this is really annoying. Plus, I'm only fixing the packages where I see races on my specific machine. I expect there are *more* races that just don't show up yet because I have a lowly bi-pro.
