and indeed, it does want a lot of memory - at peak some 550m.  It'll
be smaller on a 32-bit box, but not much smaller.


Ouch.  I can confirm that on a 32-bit box of mine it fails with about
500MB of main memory.

I also only have 500mb on my building box...

Please, pleeease.  This really hurts.  No I can no longer build libgcj
on my notebook and one or two older (but not that old) testers of mine.

For me it's fine too... Gerald, what about using a bigger swap partition?
