Not really. gcc is much more piggish on ppc. I knows it's been asked a few times now, but how much swap do you have? Also, does anyone know what PPC patches are in the gcc debs? -- Tom Rini (TR1265) http://gate.crashing.org/~trini/

How about swap, and how much VM did the compiler actually take? The error message looks like the kernel ran into trouble swapping out pages.

Appears to be a memory/swap related problem. Open up another tty and run 'top' while the make is going on, and watch your total free memory and your total free swap..they might get too small for cc to run successfully.
