Description
Using the default autotools build currently enables both the parallel test runner (-enable-parallel-test-execution) and the use of libtool wrapper scripts (-enable-libtool-wrappers).
These have an unfortunate interaction where the wrapper scripts will actually call the linker on first invocation, and the parallel test runner will run with the `nrproc` parallel tests, leading to this many parallel invocations of the linker for a huge link, which can completely exhaust available resources on the host machine.
