I have seen this a couple of times, and not only on my machine but on
a build server too (pkgbuild.com). It was immediately after the move
from aufs - that at least I can confirm. It has nothing to do with
parallel builds or intltool because/and I can't reproduce it. However,
ever since I have been fully updated, it hasn't resurfaced. It has got
something to with memory and a core package, because all work is being
done with virtual devices and writing to them is being denied.
