name of map file

[Andrej Mitrovic]

xfbuild has racing problems, according to its creator. He recommended
me to force xfbuild to use only one thread. I had issues where it's
output would quite literally come out in an alien language. When there
are problems I have to re-run xfbuild several times until it finally
builds properly.

I wonder if this issue is caused by D1's shared-by-default state.
