Details:

If you run Make with --output-sync=target along with multiple jobs Make will
not show the full error of the last command which errored. See here
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/35848934/gnu-make-4-0-output-sync-taget-doesnt-show-the-final-error
and here
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/32164266/how-to-use-synchronization-in-makefile
for a few examples of the situation (the first link is my question).

This makes it hard to use with Jenkins or something similar as when the build
fails no one knows what command had caused the failure or the message from the
command that had caused the failure.
