[Bug 21484] New: The "make -j2" invoked by chromium's webkit build aborts early?

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21484

Summary: The "make -j2" invoked by chromium's webkit build
                    aborts early?
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.37
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: download
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

After working around bug 21174 with
  export NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS_PLUS_1=2
the commands
  wget
http://code.google.com/p/winezeug/source/browse/trunk/testsuites/chromium/bu...
  sh build.sh build webcore_bindings_sources

failed in an interesting way: each time I ran it, a few more files
appear in C:/chromium/src/chrome/Debug/obj/global_intermedia/webkit/bindings.

I now use
  export NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS_PLUS_1=1
which avoids the problem.

A slightly reduced testcase is
  sh build.sh cmd
  cd c:\chromium\src\third_party\WebKit\WebCore\WebCore.gyp
  call c:\chromium\src\third_party\cygwin\setup_env.bat
  set CYGWIN=nontsec
  bash -c "make OutDir=c:/chromium/src/chrome/Debug
IntDir=C:/chromium/src/chrome/Debug/obj/webcore_bindings_sources -j2 -f
webcore_bindings_sources_rules.mk"

That makefile invokes a python script which invokes a perl script. 
Evidently running that in parallel is too much for wine at the moment?

May be invalid (http://cygwin.com/faq.html) See number 6.6

Why does my make fail on Cygwin with an execvp error?

First of all, if you are using make -j[N], then stop. It doesn't work well.
Also beware of using non-portable shell features in your Makefiles (see tips at
http://cygwin.com/faq/faq.using.html#faq.using.shell-scripts).

Errors of make: execvp: /bin/sh: Illegal Argument or make: execvp: /bin/sh:
Argument list too long are often caused by the command-line being to long for
the Windows execution model. To circumvent this, mount the path of the
executable using the -X switch to enable cygexec for all executables in that
folder; you will also need to exclude non-cygwin executables with the -x
switch. Enabling cygexec causes cygwin executables to talk directly to one
another, which increases the command-line limit. To enable cygexec for /bin and
/usr/bin, you can add or change these entries in /etc/fstab:

C:/cygwin/bin /bin ntfs binary,cygexec 0 0
C:/cygwin/bin /usr/bin ntfs binary,cygexec 0 0

Thanks.  Sounds invalid indeed, or at least a cygwin problem.

Closing invalid.
