That's not what Toon was suggesting.  Merely that I might not have
seen the problem if I was running on a large memory machine.

I set ulimit down to 64M and did not see the problem described.
Though I did get a bootstrap comparison failure on that same file
emit-rtl.o, which is mighty suggestive.

Still work to do...
