Thank you all for your suggestions. In response to an off-list suggestion, I decided to not use the default installation, and to try recompiling after deleting the initial package.
And it barfs on compile right at the point of "this is going to take a while, if it barfs, try configure --with-low-memory" and I did and it barfed right there again. So I'm going to, for now, use the prerolled binary, and then, when I throw more ram in the beast, try compiling again. (my gcc version was in the range recommended, as is make, so I don't know what the problem is, but I never do) So thanks for your suggestions. I may be back with other simple questions while I get set up again.
