There is a sense in which a particular Linux distribution is married
to its C/C++ compiler, and use of a different compiler tends to be
limited to cases in which there is little interaction between a
compiled executable and other programs in that same installation,
clearly not true for Sage.
Since my first post I have tried this compilation several times on
different machines (all running Fedora 11), and always with the same
result -- at some point, the compilation allocates all available
memory and crashes.
Next, I plan to try using distcc during compilation in the hope of
easing the burden on any single machine (I have six).
