Yes there is or 'was' I've noticed that in the last few days I have
been running make -j7 I have *not* been getting those weird
'authors.texi' type errors or those 'file not found' type problems
that 'go away' running make again.

Every patch that has applied has passed make with no issues at all.
Whereas previously I'd have to run make twice nearly every time. So I
wonder if any recent build changes have made the difference.
