GCC make check -jN fails with broken pipe

[Jon Beniston]

Hi,

I'm trying to run the GCC testsuite in parallel (i.e. -j4) on Cygwin, but it
fails with " parent: sync byte write: broken pipe":

make check-gcc  -j4
..
Running /home/me/gcc/testsuite/gcc.c-torture/compile/compile.exp ...
Running /home/me/gcc/testsuite/gcc.c-torture/compile/compile.exp ...
Running /home/me/gcc/testsuite/gcc.c-torture/compile/compile.exp ...
Running /home/me/gcc/testsuite/gcc.c-torture/compile/compile.exp ...
parent: sync byte write: broken pipe
parent: sync byte write: broken pipe

Looking in the individual log files that are made (E.g.
gcc/testsuite/gcc1/gcc.log), there doesn't seem to be any more info, just
the broken pipe message:

...
/home/me/gcc/testsuite/gcc.c-torture/compile/20000717-1.c
parent: sync byte write: broken pipe


The testsuite runs OK with without the -j option, and the build of GCC runs
OK with -j. Has anyone else been able to run the testsuite in parallel?

Cygwin installation is up to date.

Cheers,
Jon
