"Virtual Memory exhausted" message during compilation

[Victor Tsaran]

Hello, listers!
I was wondering if some of you know the remeedy or have any clues asto what
this message means in this context.
Earlier today I wrote that I am trying to compile Napster client on a
Bigslack7.1-powered machine. In order for PERL to run the Napster client, it
needs to support multiple threads. So, I started to recompile my PERL5.60.
Everything goes fine through configuration stage, I can start Make. However,
as soon as Make gets to queering Posix libraries, it always exits with the
following message:

"Posix.o: Virtual memory exhausted".

I thought initially that it has to do with the size of a swapfile. So, I
increased it to 128MB, my system RAM is only 32 MB. However, the message
persists.
I tried to compile PERL for both dynamic and static loading. Both cases
fail.
Jacob, do you have any suggestions?
Anyone?

Thanks in advance,
Vic
