[Rd] make check-all error on Win 7 with 2-12-.0: vfork: Resource temporarily unavailable

[Andy Bunn]

Hi all, I just built R from src on Windows 7 using Rtools212.exe. The build went as usual (R, bitmaps, and manuals all OK) but make check-all failed when running the examples for package 'tcltk':


...
running code in 'demos2.R' ... OK
running tests of primitives
running code in 'primitives.R' ... OK
make[2]: vfork: Resource temporarily unavailable
make[1]: *** [test-all-devel] Error 1
make: *** [check-all] Error 2

There was no error when I ran make check-all a second time. Just FYI in case this means anything to the heavy-weight developers out there.
