     From Adam Scott:
-    - Changed the TEMPLATE rule of the Ninja tool to use the `install_pool`
-      instead of `local_pool` in order to curb some race conditions.
+    - Changed Ninja's TEMPLATE rule pool to use `install_pool` instead of
+      `local_pool`, hoping it will fix a race condition that can occurs when
+      Ninja defers to SCons to build.
