I just downloaded 1.5.4 and am building with gnu make, passing the '-j5' flag to invoke multiple jobs. I get the following:

% make -j5 prefix=/opt/git-1.5.4 all doc info [...] make[1]: Entering directory `/home/blear/build/git-1.5.4/Documentation' rm -f doc.dep+ doc.dep /usr/bin/perl ./build-docdep.perl >doc.dep+ Writing perl.mak for Git make -C ../ GIT-VERSION-FILE mv doc.dep+ doc.dep make -C ../ GIT-VERSION-FILE mv doc.dep+ doc.dep mv: cannot stat `doc.dep+': No such file or directory [...]

it does not seem to fail from there, but I am concerned that this is a problem and thought it worth reporting.
