But on supported configurations (and afaik interix is one of them), an out-of-
the-box gcc build (incl. libgcj) should not be guranteed to fail.
This is no physical limit (memory size, swap space, ...), we tried on several
different systems, all failed in the same way.
It is a fundamental architectural problem: There is a 2 GB virtual address
space limit for each process in Windows, and in combination with the way
windows loads DLLs etc., gcc will hit this limit when building libgcj with the
default settings, no matter how large the hardware is.
