Comment:

 This is very easily reproduced and very difficult to fix. It is a
 fundamental problem with automake. The problem is that "make install" only
 has dependencies on the target it is installing, not on other components.
 I am not aware of any mechanism for introducing dependencies for the
 install rule for generated makefiles. This is further complicated by
 libtool which when installing does a relink to get the correct "final"
 SONAME entries into the shared abject. Doing parallel installs is bad for
 other reasons too. You can end up with corrupted archives if you have
 multiple sub-makes all adding members to a ranlib archive.

 However, it is worth noting that using the jobserver for "make install" is
 highly unconventional for the above reasons, and this problem and be very
 easily avoided by simply not doing that. At best this warrants some
 documentation in a README or the building instructions.
