Small correction: on macOS and FreeBSD it's using the vendor compiler,
which is some kind of clang.
BTW, on those two OSes there are some messages like this each time a
submake dumps its output to the log:
[03:36:16.591] fcntl(): Bad file descriptor
It seems worth putting up with these compared to the alternatives of
either not using -j, not using -Otarget and having the output of
parallel tests all mashed up and unreadable (that still happen
sometimes but it's unlikely, because the submakes write() whole output
chunks at infrequent intervals), or redirecting to a file so you can't
see the realtime test output on the main CI page (not so fun, you have
to wait until it's finished and view it as an 'artifact'). I tried to
write a patch for GNU make to fix that[1], let's see if something
happens.
