Hi,

In bash 5.1 we're seeing a parallel make race during build, as found a
couple of times in our automated CI for Yocto Project:

https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/builders/80/builds/1720/steps/14/logs/stdio
https://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/typhoon/#/builders/44/builds/2969/steps/25/logs/stdio

The issue is around pipesize.h which in 5.1 can be built by two
different triggers, builtins/ulimit.o or redir.o.

They can race against each other and rewrite files causing the above
failure.

We added a bit of a hacky workaround:

Index: bash-5.1/Makefile.in
