fortranstubs,etags are common data for all builds. In case of multiple builds one after another - it was ok to just rebuild each time.
With parallel builds - it doesn't make sense to rebuild fortranstubs, etags parallely. Perhaps we need some kind of locking mechanism? The first configure cleates a lock - before starting a build and removes after completion. If a subsequent configure comes to the state fo building etags [or fortranstubs] - it checks the lock - and if it exists - skips the build?
