/var/db/repos/gentoo/eclass/linux-mod.eclass contains the line: pigz -n$(makeopts_jobs) ${modulename}.${KV_OBJ} Option "-n" is wrong because... - option "-n" does NOT specify the number of parallel jobs - option "-n" does NOT take an argument. - $(makeopts_jobs) is interpreted as the compressions level (which is not what we want) - pigz fails if makeopts_jobs > 11, because the maximum compression level is 11 Solution: either omit option "-n" or use option "-p", which specifies the maximum number of processes. See: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-8753121.html#8753121
It should indeed be -p and I thought I'd fixed that. I'll do so shortly.
