In Debian, we've received a report (https://bugs.debian.org/1114397) of
sporadic build failures during the Java binding part of the build. The
failure looks like

After some investigation, it seems like this is the scenario that is
happening
* javac starts running to generate the javahl headers and class files.
* org_apache_subversion_javahl_util_ConfigImpl_Category.h is created,
but does not yet contain all of its expected content
* This satisfies the Make prereq to compile
org_apache_subversion_javahl_util_ConfigImpl_Category.cpp
* The compile fails because the header is only partially generated
This is being encountered on a small, 2 CPU AWS VM and even then only
happens in about 10% of builds.
I haven't checked if the CMake builds handles this any better.
Cheers,
