Thanks for sorting this out and adressing the problem to automake.

You did not reassigned but rather cloned the bug.  This in turn means you want
me as wordnet maintainer to do something about this.  IMHO using the .NOTPARALLEL
hint would cure the problem for the moment but once automake is fixed I would
hide a feature.

IMHO it would be better not to clone this bug but rather only reassign and
using the new "affects" feature of the BTS to make sure the problem shows up also
on the BTS view of wordnet.

What do you think about this?

Kind regards

        Andreas.
