grrrrrr ... following the instructions here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Building_a_custom_kernel
on how to build a custom kernel (some of which is incorrect, more on
that later), and builds keep failing at random places, i'm guessing
because i have a hyperthreaded quad-core laptop, and the "make -j8" is
simply tripping over itself in arbitrary places.
what's the easiest way to specify a single-threaded build? yes, it
will take forever, but it will be nice to verify that that's the
problem.
thanks.

Theoretically you could do
MAKEFLAGS="-j 1" rpmbuild blah-blah
gmake looks for the environment variable "MAKEFLAGS". Most reasonable
makefiles do "MAKEFLAGS+=other-specific-flags", so it should honor it.
Keep in mind that if there are multiple "-j" variables to gmake, it will
only honor the LAST one specified. YMMV.
