pkg: error running the configure script for parallel.
error: called from
    configure_make at line 78 column 9
    install at line 192 column 7
    pkg at line 394 column 9


but the parallel package file did appear in the working directory. and I
haven't had any other trouble downloading package files with ver 4.2.1
