That's not as easy as you may think. This only happens on freefall, and it doesn't always happen. When it does happen, the output isn't exactly the same; i.e., it's always broken slightly differently. I've looked at the output before, and it really looks like there are two processes or threads or something writing to the same file; that's the only way I can explain it. At first I suspected that the web build scripts use make -j, but this isn't the case. I have seen multiple 'jade' (the SGML renderer) processes running simultaneously on freefall, though; perhaps the build script is being started twice? It's a long shot, but that *could* be the potential culprit.
