It fails with a different error each time, one example: make -j4 check > /dev/null In file included from gram.y:14515: scan.c: In function 'yy_try_NUL_trans': scan.c:10307: warning: unused variable 'yyg' /usr/bin/ld: tab-complete.o: No such file: No such file or directory collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [psql] Error 1 make[2]: *** [all-psql-recurse] Error 2 make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[1]: *** [all-bin-recurse] Error 2 make: *** [all-src-recurse] Error 2 make: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... If I rerun it without cleaning the tree, is usually passes the second time. Or I can just separate the make and the check like "make -j4 > /dev/null && make check > /dev/null" but I've grown accustomed to being able to combine them since this problem was first fixed a couple years ago (in a commit I can't seem to find) I have: GNU Make 4.0 Built for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu I was using ccache, but I still get the problem without using it.
