$home/obj-AIX >makeAIX  (gnu make 3.80)


stops at 
makeAIX[1]: Entering directory `/home/digz/obj-gcc4/gcc'
build/genattrtab ../../gcc-4.0.0/gcc/config/rs6000/rs6000.md > tmp-
attrtab.c

out of memory allocating 12016 bytes after a total of 4161654652 bytes

	The GCC "Host/Target specific installation note for GCC" is a good
resource for this type of question:

"out of memory bootstrap failures may indicate a problem with process
resource limits (ulimit). Hard limits are configured in the
/etc/security/limits system configuration file."

Make sure that the data and stack limits are set large enough for the
processes that will build GCC.
