Hi Sachin, We had the same/a similar problem with QtWebKit. Ranlib ran out of memory on a 32bit system when building debug, because the library got bigger than 4GB. I dont think there is a proper solution for this problem. The only thing that would help would be to reduce the size of WebCore. For now we just disabled debug builds on 32bit systems. I heard some people managed to build debug by disabling SVG. - never tried it myself though.
