That's the bad old days of FC-5 and hideous 16/23 hour i386/ppc builds.
With some (if I do say so myself) awesome reimplementation of the java
base help file building and parsing into a c++ libxsltproc based one and
a pile of multiproc build fixes I can both reliably parallel build now
and can zip through the multi langpack build in about 3/6 hours
depending on architecture. But there's no denying that it's a big
intensive build which'll tie up a number of machines.
