Strangely, it compiled fine just now. So perhaps the overnight
power-down helped?

I monitored 'free' this time round and saw the free column drop to
about 273MB (of 3GB). Cached/buffers took 1.3GB.

I have ran memtest about a year ago for approximately 16 hours with no
problems, but I do wonder if one of the RAM modules is failing. Some
other pages I found when googling for this problem seemed to suggest
that bad RAM is to play, but I can't accept this without more proof,
especially given that memtest ran fine.

So, it could be a hardware fault and I will do more tests and monitor
the situation.

Just for completeness, here's a dump of my ulimits:

I doubt it - I just use whatever comes with OpenSuse. Do you have a
specific concern with the gcc version I'm using? Or was the change
just part of determining if gcc had a problem and to help with
diagnosis?

Thanks,
