When I want to build Automake (current Git version) with
a parallel make ("make -j12"):

  MAKEINFO doc/automake-history.info
  GEN      bin/automake
  GEN      bin/aclocal
  GEN      t/ax/shell-no-trail-bslash
  GEN      t/ax/cc-no-c-o
  GEN      doc/aclocal.1
  GEN      runtest
  GEN      doc/automake.1
  GEN      doc/amhello-1.0.tar.gz
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/vlefevre/software/automake'
  GEN      lib/Automake/Config.pm
  GEN      t/ax/test-defs.sh
find: ‘./conf272281.dir’: No such file or directory
find: ‘./conf272280.dir’: No such file or directory

make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/vlefevre/software/automake'
Updating ./doc/version.texi
  MAKEINFO doc/automake.info

  GEN      bin/automake-1.16
  GEN      doc/automake-1.16.1
+++++++++++make: INTERNAL: Exiting with 1 jobserver tokens available; should be 12!
