A general fix (i.e. one that upstream accept) would probably involve
using "nproc" command inside the Makefiles, but then we would have to
override that anyway to avoid using so many simultaneous jobs if the
user explicitly ask for less jobs via DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.

The safe/conservative thing to do would be to use 1 job for the test suite.

I can put an issue in github if you confirm there is not one yet.

Thanks.

I did not find one, but glanced very quickly through the issue tracker.
