Bugzilla Bug 16807

I had to re-emerge gconf while following the instructions at 
http://cvs.gentoo.org/~satai/sgmlfix.html - I could not emerge docbook-sgml-
utils.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Follow instructions at http://cvs.gentoo.org/~satai/sgmlfix.html
2. emerge gconf

Actual Results:

looks like a corruption somewhere, if you emerge it with MAKEOPTS="-j1" is set
(in make.globals or as environment var) does that make a difference ?

I changed it in make.conf (not .globals) and got no error. Thank you!

added MAKEOPTS to the ebuild, should fix this.
