The i386 machine is Ultra20 with 1GB.

My problem is that that it formerly build ON without problems in 6
hours. Now the build time is 130-160 hours at least. I've borrowed
memory modules for a weekend to get 1GB extra but the build was still
running after two days when I had to return the modules.
