iicx with 8mb of ram and 128mb of swap... since i just installed it a
week or two ago, i've been compiling like crazy. ./configure, make, cc1
- they all dump every once in a while (which is a pain if you leave your
machine compiling over night, and find out in the morning that it
freaked 10 minutes after you left it...). cc1 says it gets a signal 10
before going down and writing the core file... ./configure says it was a
bus error.

any idea?
