Yup that sounds like it. I have only 256MB of RAM. I'll try and get a 512MB chip. Maybe that'll help

I'm guessing that you have a small memory system and are building one
of the tarballs.  Small memory means something less than 750MB - 1GB of RAM.
The code in svn trunk has been restructured such that the memory
footprint required during compilation is down to something like 400MB.
