Compilation problems on Mandrake 7.0

I was trying to compile samba from CVS, and gcc ate sh*t on me towards
the end of the compilation. Has anybody had this problem on their Linux
Mandrake 7.0-2 boxes?

I tried upgrading gcc to the version in Cooker, but the same error
occurred. I did the following:

# ./configure --prefix=/local

# make
and I get the following after a while


...snipped successful compiles...

Uhhh, is that bad?

My gcc is version 2.95.3, on a pretty much stock mandrake 7.0 install,
using a K6-2 450 with  256Mb RAM and an Adaptec 2940U2W that has been
rock solid up until now.

Is this an actual problem with the compiler, and has anyone found a
workaround, or do I need to take gcc to task here?

Thanks,
Geoff Davis
