Probably not, because it isn't gcc that is failing...it is gtkdoc-mkhtml, and it is running out of memory. You can either merge gtk with USE=-doc, which will skip this step, or use MAKEFLAGS=-j1, which will run only one process at a time, and reduce your memory requirements by about half. -Richard -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

That makes sense, since I only recently set MAKEFLAGS=-j2 (it was recommended, I think). RAM is 512M and swap is about 760M. Could this be the cause? Jorge -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
