[camresppta01] /cygdrive/c/builds/ghc-HEAD/libraries > make -j2
ifBuildable/ifBuildable base make
make[1]: Entering directory `/cygdrive/c/builds/ghc-HEAD/libraries/base'
make[1]: *** read jobs pipe: Is a directory. Stop.
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/builds/ghc-HEAD/libraries/base'
make: *** [make.library.base] Error 2
