This is a bug with gcc, not a problem with make.

Very occaisionally, this symptom can occur if gcc runs out of stack
space (e.g. while processing a complicated program when you have
used `limit' or `ulimit' to limit the available stack space).

But if it only occurs on Red Hat 7.0, it is more likely to be because
a bug in the version of gcc on Red Hat 7.0.  I think I heard that
Red Hat 7.0 ships with a version of GNU C that the GNU C committee did
not want to be treated as a production release.
