I got such failures too, as well as others (internal compiler
errors, core dumps...).
I finally reduced my K6-2/500 to just 450 MHz and now it works.

I guess, it's a problem with the amount of memory (512 MB), the quite
old motherboard (five years ago, there weren't 80GB disks and >> 128 MB
of RAM) and the BIOS.
