Too many heap sections: Increase MAXHINCR or MAX_HEAP_SECTS
Aborted

In the past there was some dicussion about setting LARGE_CONFIG, see
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java-patches/2005-q4/msg00149.html
and in the followup:

"For the branch, I wanted to solve the problem while making the least intrusive
change possible. On HEAD, it sounds like LARGE_CONFIG is the way to go. I will
test a patch shortly and reverse the MAX_ROOT_SETS change there."
