Initial analysis from Mike Duigou:

It seems like a race condition in the parallel parts of image build since JOBS=1 makes it succeed and re-run makes it succeed.

Temporary work around is to split off the images stage to it's own make.
ie. make hotspot langtools corba jaxp jaxws jdk nashorn; make JOBS=1 images
