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 order to create duma_config.h which is needed by
dumapp.cpp.  With -j2, 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?

echo 'MAKEOPTS="-j1"'>/etc/portage/env/dev-util/duma

Exactly what I was looking for!

Note that by doing so you will be using -j1 for every future version of duma. That means, if the problem gets fixed, you'll still be using -j1.
