I have filed a bug for this, and have been trying to reproduce it 
without success:

I do have access to a system with a lot of cores, and have been doing 
builds on it.

I'd just like to confirm that when you saw this, it was a build from

you *weren't* building this from a remote filesystem (NFS), correct?

Thanks,

Scott
