I don't see that as an option in /usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf. Did you find that one by reading the source code? I will add that to my /etc/make.conf and see if it makes a difference. This issue is very intermittant and may not trigger for weeks or months. I'll repost to the list if any problems show up after setting the flag in my /etc/make.conf Thanks for the help.
