Perhaps that's related to the reported "make clean" infinite loop. On my favourite git checkout I had that problem, too; it went like this: rm -f help.doc (cd tests; make clean) /bin/bash: Line 0: cd: tests: File or directory not found make[2543]: Entering directory `/.../build' for i in lsp cmp clos clx tk ext; do rm -f lib$i.a $i/?*.{o,eclh,data,c,sdat,h,fas}; done rm -f help.doc (cd tests; make clean) That accumulated make processes until the machine started swapping; I got it soon enough, so that a Ctrl-C was enough, but perhaps you've already been too deep in OOM.
