 Building on VMWare ESXi 3.5.0 Update 3 (FreeBSD as a guest OS) still
 fails occasionally if more than 1 CPU is allocated to the virtual
 machine. The failures are due to processes like sh, sed or cc1 dupming
 core on signal 11 during the build.
 
 I am using a pristine source tree now.
 
 The problem seems to be SMP related because enabling only 1 virtual
 CPU removes the problem.
 
 Should I open a new PR?
