I don't think I like this change. stderr is unbuffered for a reason,
and that reason is relevant for Emacs as well: important messages,
especially about errors and problems should not be lost because Emacs
crashes at an un-opportune moment.
The original issue is at worst a minor inconvenience, whereas the
"solution" adversely affects much more serious use cases. So on
balance I don't think we should install this change.
As I wrote earlier, people who want to avoid mixing messages in
parallel builds can use the GNU Make's -O option. That does the job
without impacting the rest of Emacs in any way.
