Dear Wolfgang Denk,
thank you for your response.

To make sure i understand your statement:
I native compiled some other source packages successfully before.
(Thats my favouried way to get packages done for the target, not really
fast but without cross_compiling headaches.) And that works quite good
so far. In the package in question a lot of code compiled successfully
before, too. I am pretty sure that a package with frugal memory
consumption (no swap needed) will compile successfully.
So you say:
Creating a swap-file over nfs like described in this thread is OK
and should work without problems.
If not (with blocking issues for example) there could be a kernel
problem.
Is that correct?
Best Regards,
Bastian Ruppert.
