That could be what's happening... not necessarily parallel lilypond-book runs in the same directory, but building the english docs + translations at the same time with lilypond-book in parallel? Is there any way to turn "make -jX doc" into "make -j1 CPU_COUNT=X doc" automatically? I've already seen that "make -j1 CPU_COUNT=X doc" works, and seems to take the same time + have the same CPU load as doing -j4 CPU_COUNT=4. No, I haven't looked at how make processes the -j options, and I'd rather not have to do this if I don't have to. If somebody can look into this, I'll continue to look into why GUB can't build the 2.12.3 docs. Deal?
