Package: make
Version: 4.1-9
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
running the attached Makefile will hang the process,
if multiple jobs are used then the process wont respond to a
TERM and has to be killed.
The very same issue is observed with make-guile.
I believe this to not be an upstream bug, since I observed this
only a couple weeks ago after an upgrade.
Unfortunatly I can`t pinpoint a date or version.
Kind Regards, Norbert
