Hello,

I pushed following updates:

commit 0d7ba0ff39a332b0f93c4958370b2c7db9ea0e30 (HEAD -> pending, yocto/master, m/master)

    ecj-initial.in: Disable multithreading to mitigate segfaulting
    
    Cacao-initial-native suffers from sporadic segmentation faults, when the Java
    program uses multiple Java threads, due to a race condition. In particular,
    jamvm-native and classpath-native builds would occasionally fail as the
    eclipse compiler used during build task by default uses multiple threads.
    
    As fixing the race condition would require large changes to the
    cacao-initial-native codebase, and as it is only used briefly during the
    bootstrapping process, it is easier and safer to just force ecj-initial to run
    in a singlethreaded mode.
