Don't run the testsuites in parallel ?  :-)  

OK, so not helpful.  Instead some questions - if you run the builds in
parallel, but then the checks sequentially, does everything work.  How about
the other way around (sequential builds, parallel tests) ?

The thing that struck me about the error message was that it looks like the
opcodes library is in the process of being built whilst the tests are running. 
So maybe - just a theory - the gprofng testsuite is triggering a *re-build* of
the opcodes library for some reason.  (Because of some strange makefile
dependency maybe ?)

Another wild guess - maybe adding the .NOTPARALLEL: pseudo-target to the
gprofng Makefile.am would help ?  Just before the check-DEJAGNU: target ?

That is about all that comes to mind at the moment, however.  Sorry.
