parallel debug builds on solaris-sparc

[Tom Rodriguez]

Make sure you are using a good version of GNU make.  The default build  
of make has support for something called a build server and there's a  
problem in how it handles signals and restartable system calls which  
causes failures like you're seeing.  Have you tried /java/devtools/ 
sparc/bin/gnumake?
