-From f2ada08ce5b92de1869419f1ed50aa1190a8bfb4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
-From: Mike Frysinger <vapier@gentoo.org>
-Date: Fri, 19 Aug 2011 10:47:10 -0400
-Subject: [PATCH] fix building manpages in parallel
-
-The current man page rules allow make to fire off two children (1 per
-man page), but each child will attempt to create all the required man
-pages.  So it's possible for the children to collide on their outputs.
-Rewrite the rules so that each man page will fire off one child and
-only process its specific man page.
