I have seen the problem on the following machine
Core i7 980X (hexa core) @ 3.33 GHz
12 GB RAM
Ubuntu 11.10 x64
Build on Intel 510 120 GB SSD disk
PARALLEL_MAKE = "24" | "4"
BB_NUMBER_THREADS = "24" | "4".

I have not seen the problem on the following machine
Core i7 920 @ 2.67 GHz
4 GB RAM.
Ubuntu 11.04 x64
WD Black 1TB SATA-II
PARALLEL_MAKE = "4"
BB_NUMBER_THREADS = "4".


The problem comes in two flavours.
The one in the log, but also when building "tiff".
"tiff" bombs with another C++ include.

Someone else had a similar problem, so I cleaned out the build directory,
built tiff, and then console-image, which completed.

I changed my build script to first build tiff, and then console-image
for the next clean build. This time the c++ include problem reappeared.

I guess there is some race condition somewhere.
