And I presume make will treat the printing and compiling as one unit, so parallel builds still get the summary above the error messages when compilation fails. The way this patch is now a parallel build may show the summary for the last successful build and then error messages for a build that hasn't output its summary yet, which can be confusing. So I agree that something more like SLOF's approach would be better. Thanks, drew
