+Sometimes you might get an error in a thread that is not handled by buildman,
+perhaps due to a failure of a tool that it calls. You might see the output, but
+then buildman hangs. Failing to handle any eventuality is a bug in buildman and
+should be reported. But you can use -T0 to disable threading and hopefully
+figure out the root cause of the build failure.
