Hi John, I can confirm that this happens when compiling the plugins, using
a similar number of processes, which probably triggers the race condition
due to some of the plugins needing molfile to be built first. I don't
remember which one at the moment, I worked around it by using ccache
anyway, at which point the non-parallel make is fast enough.
