 After rebooting, I restricted MAKE_JOBS to 1 for "qt3-tools".  The build
 gets stuck in the same place:
 
 [...]
 cd designer && /usr/pkg/bin/gmake -f Makefile
 gmake[3]: Entering directory '/tmp/pkgsrc/x11/qt3-tools/work/qt-x11-free-3.3.8/tools/designer/designer'
 /tmp/pkgsrc/x11/qt3-tools/work/qt-x11-free-3.3.8/bin/uic -L /tmp/pkgsrc/x11/qt3-tools/work/qt-x11-free-3.3.8/plugins listboxeditor.ui -o listboxeditor.h
 
 
 Pressing Ctrl-T reports:
 
 load: 0.00  cmd: sh 28007 [wait] 0.00u 0.00s 0% 1288k
 make: Working in: /x/pkgsrc-2017Q2/x11/qt3-tools
 make[1]: Working in: /x/pkgsrc-2017Q2/x11/qt3-tools
 
 and 'top' reports:
 
 $ top -nt | grep uic
   278     1 sysop     81 fdclos/0   0:00  0.00%  0.00% -         uic
 
 
 So far the problem has manifested only on NetBSD-8.0_BETA or -8.99.1
 with modular Xorg on i386.  A test with NetBSD-7.1_STABLE-i386 and
 modular Xorg is in progress.
 
 I normally have no need of modular Xorg on amd64, but perhaps a test
 setup can be arranged.
