So you are building elpa on a machine/vm with one cpu/vcore apparently?

I guess it is useful information that elpa requires at least two cores
to executes its MPI-based testsuite, but I don't think that this should
be a general requirement for an RC bug, so downgrading to normal for
now. If you indeed have more than 1 cpu core/vcore available, then I
agree that this is RC.
