Comment:

 Thanks to all for their input on this to date.

 I have confirmed the problem and that the proposed solution works although
 it still isn't clear to me what is happening and exactly where things went
 wrong.  My current thinking is that it is some inappropriate interaction
 between
 gmake and ffmpeg's Makefile.

 I have committed a change that causes -j2 to be added to the build command
 on
 single processor machines while not limiting machines with more than two
 cores in r71172.

 This is intended as a temporary measure to allow ffmpeg to build for those
 effected
 while the investigation into the root cause proceeds and potentially a
 better
 long term solution.

 In the meantime, I will leave the ticket open and encourage further input
 from anyone
 who has any insight into the problem.
