Neither seems good.  It sounds like there is a race condition in the build.  Can we fix that?  Has this been fixed in newer versions of bash?

Subject: [Starlingx-discuss] Build Packages: Fail to Build BASH with Simultaneous Jobs

During a recent compilation of StarlingX build failures happened for package bash-4.2.46-29 [0]

2 ways to fix:
- in a workstation with 8 CPUs, it is fixed by cleaning the component and running a second time via build-pkgs
- in a server with 88 CPUs, the failure is fixed by removing the -j option from patch [1]

Any advice is highly appreciated.
