Stop. Looks like MakeMaker is racing against itself. Alas, (on a fairly current Debian system, with perl 5.14.2) I'm not able to reproduce that. Instead, I get this: | $ make -j8 rpm [...] | make[2]: Leaving directory `$HOME/rpmbuild/BUILD/git-1.8.5.3/Documentation' | make[1]: Leaving directory `$HOME/rpmbuild/BUILD/git-1.8.5.3' | + exit 0 | Executing(%install): /bin/sh -e /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.WqNYnx | + umask 022 | + cd $HOME/rpmbuild/BUILD | + cd git-1.8.5.3 | + rm -rf $HOME/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/git-1.8.5.3-1.x86_64 | + make -j12 'CFLAGS=-O2 -g' \ DESTDIR=$HOME/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/git-1.8.5.3-1.x86_64 \ ETC_GITCONFIG=/etc/gitconfig prefix=/usr \ mandir=/usr/share/man htmldir=/usr/share/doc/git-1.8.5.3 \ INSTALLDIRS=vendor install install-doc | make[1]: Entering directory `$HOME/rpmbuild/BUILD/git-1.8.5.3' | make[1]: warning: -jN forced in submake: disabling jobserver mode. | make[1]: *** write jobserver: Bad file descriptor.

A build without -j8 gets further.
