>Description:
unison-devel fails to build if MAKE_JOBS_NUMBER is >= 1, for instance,
on multicore computers.  I have set it to MAKE_JOBS_UNSAFE for the
nonce, however, I'd propose that this be fixed. This is usually a sign
that there is a lack of dependency information in the build machinery.

I know too little of OCaML to make more precise statements.

Find below the tail of the log how it fails on my Quadcore computer:
