[Ecls-list] "make -j 4" breaks; "make" doesn't

I was building the 0.9i release on Itanium 2 (Debian Etch, 2.6.18
kernel, gcc 4.1.2, no configure options other than
--prefix=<myprefix>) and noticed that a parallel make ("make -j 4")
fails (something like "./dpp not found") but a non-parallel make
("make") does not.  Not a big deal but I'm curious why a parallel make
would fail -- isn't GNU make supposed to take care of the parallel
issues?
