HELP! GCC exhausts 3b1 virtual memory

First, of all thanks to all those who sent me patches that would
allow gcc to compile on my 3b1.
Now, on to the current problem. I have managed to get gcc, version
1.35, to compile using cc. The executable of the parser is about
6.6M and appears to run correctly. After completing the initial
make, I tried to recompile gcc with itself, as the installation guide
suggested. The compile proceeds smoothly until the cc1 starts work
on c-parse.tab.c. After thinking about it for a few minutes unix
complains about virtual memory being exhausted, and the make aborts.
Below is all the relevant information I can think of:
- My system is a 3b1 with 2M of onboard memory. ( 40M drive ).
- I do not have Bison running so a new c-parse.tab.c has not been
created.
- The compilation always aborts in the same place.
- I have attempted to create more space ( swap I assume ) by
running as root with no window manager. I have even gone
so far as to kill off the phone manager and lp scheduler to
free up more space.
- The initial compilation with cc was using -O. So gcc, cc1, and
cpp are optimized.
- I have the same problem attempting to compile GNU Emacs file
regexp.c.
Any body have ideas? Encountered the same problem? Any and all
help is appreciated.
