Actually, the root cause for this regression concerning "R" turned out to be something *completely different*, has nothing to do with parallel building (the double output seems to be an artifact, and the build is not affected by that at all), and especially the Sage-4.0.1 bdist version I mentioned is OK, too. The root cause was the patch for trac #2513 which was incorporated in Sage-4.0.2.alpha4, concerning the setting (or not ...) of the variable LANG in the sage-env script. Since in r.py, some error messages are parsed word-by-word and since the wording does change with different languages, and since R somehow without the LANG environment variable defaulted fro me to german instead of english, I had some fun hours of debugging. I'll prepare a nice patch with some explanations for the R.spkg's "spkg-install" script to use 'LANG="en_US.UTF-8" && export LANG', and attach it to the yet-to-be-created trac ticket for this, but this might take more than a day.
