I've had trouble building dev-util/duma and discovered this morning that
-j2 was the culprit. duma's build compiles and runs createconf.c in

the cpp compilation is starting before createconf finishes running and
this causes the emerge to die.
How does one set a special MAKEOPTS for a particular package?
AFAIK, you can't. This has to be fixed either by upstream or patched in
portage or the ebuild must manually use -j1.
Since you reported this on Gentoo's bugzilla, one of the above should
happen soon :)
