Signal 9 is SIGKILL, which unconditionally kills a process.
It is not part of the normal boot process.

SIGKILL is something that is sent by the Linux OOM (Out Of Memory)
killer, so this is something that might have happened.  If so,
I would expect a corresponding message in the log file.

As to why - either your system was low on memory due to other reasons,
or there was a problem with the build which manifested itself by
using excessive memory during linking.
