Thanks, Jon. I'll look at that after this finishes and after I fix the
known OOPS I caused myself.

What happened is that it was building both llvm80 and gcc9 at the same
time. I can see that now it's building llvm90 and it's been at it for
over 2 hours. Obviously this is going to become a problem again
although the next time I build a disk I can use more of it for swap.
It's not processor speed that is the problem now, although if I alter
those parameters what is now 11 hours will become 20. Such is life
with "old" computers... :D
