Because memtest86 doesn't catch all memory errors, while a kernel compile stresses the system in ways memtest86 doesn't. Some memory errors only happen when there is IO going on at the same time, which is exactly what a kernel compile does. For more information, see the sig11 FAQ at http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/ .
