Description:
Making the mtools package fails on my multiprocessor, apparently due to some automatic parallel processing not working properly. Changing this line in the PKGBUILD:

make prefix=${pkgdir}/usr install

to this:

make -j 1 prefix=${pkgdir}/usr install

Fixes the problem by forcing make to use only one process for the install.

Additional info:
* Tested on mtools 4.0.10-4
* Failing build log attached

Steps to reproduce:
makepkg in mtools abs dir
