-current, often got [make] <defunct> when compiling with -j option
 

Hi,

I noticed I got [make] <defunct> when compiling with -j2 and more, on two different machines with different CPUs.

I tested only with kernel compilations.
It happens all the time.

I don't know how to debug this.

Hi, could you try to build and install this patched version of the make package?

(I've been wondering whether this is worth sending to Patrick...)

Edit: The upstream bug reports corresponding to these patches are:

https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?49014

Yup, pselect is also mentioned there:

Fixed upstream.
