What was the PR# for this? I don't remember seeing one. :(

I believe it was someones experament to see how difficult
it would be to make the *.mk and make files parallel safe.
I don't think there was a PR associated with it.
I still have the patches somewhere on my system, I'd be
happy to forward them to you for you inspection.
