I am curious as to how reliable using -j when building world under
4.0-STABLE is.. Ive seen it do some weird things, and noting that -j with
an installworld has problems when it comes to /bin/ln and /bin/rm it made
me wonder if building world was a potential problem (I have had no
problems without -j). 
The system in question IS an overclocked machine, but has proven 100%
stable under any other situation, indeed I have managed to make -j8
buildworld many times, however 1 in 8 attempts seg faults somewhere along
the way (usually early in the rm'ing part, or very late.)
Memory is also fine, this has been checked with memtest86 v2.3, running
for 50 hours (4 passes.)
