Yep.  Go back to the FTP site and download the script "dbuild" - I just
put it there.

Depends what you're compiling, but quite possibly, yes.
For example - compiling ruby on 256MB RAM took days because it was
constantly in swap; and building KDE is pretty much a no go.

In my opinion, for a build host, the best bet at the moment is a
SheevaPlug or one of the *Plug family -- preferably with an eSATA disc
attached.
