I've updated the pigz in the $PATH jenkins sees to pigz-2.4.

However, my builds are always updated automatically and always build from
master; there's no way to insert ad-hoc patches into a build.

The job of my overnight builds is to keep tabs on master branches and ensure
they continue to build, not to test groups of patches in anticipation of
pushing new things into the repository. Therefore my Jenkins build flow has
been structured this specific way on purpose.

Since these failures only occur for me from builds kicked off by Jenkins, I
won't be able to easily help test patches unless I were to create a new
Jenkins workflow.
