The underlying error here is a signal 11, AKA segment fault.
_Probably_, it is a flaky hardware problem caused by one bit of memory
that can't run consistantly as fast as it is being expected to.  With a
big compile, gcc will use _all_ the memory, and work it hard.  There is
good information on sig11 here:

http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11

I had been using a locally compiled gcc that I linked with libc 5.0.9
(all I had at the time) that eventually segment faulted with libc
5.4.44.  Since I use glibc for program development anyway, I replaced it
with the precompiled glibc version and haven't had any more trouble.  I
wouldn't expect that kind of library/binary compatibility problem with a
freshly installed distro, but I guess it's conceivable.  If bitwizard
doesn't help, you might take a look at www.winehq.com.  Somebody is
making libc5 binaries of wine availble, and he might be willing to
advise you on it.
