I've just witnessed it with a couple of packages:
multimedia/vlc:
CC input/libvlccore_la-stream_memory.lo
/scratch/multimedia/vlc/work/.wrapper/bin/gcc: Cannot fork
/scratch/multimedia/vlc/work/.wrapper/tmp/logic: Cannot fork
/usr/pkg/bin/libtool: Cannot fork
[...]
multimedia/totem-browser-plugin:
file=`echo es | sed 's,.*/,,'`.gmo \
&& rm -f $file &&
/scratch/multimedia/totem-browser-plugin/work/.tools/bin/msgfmt -o $file
es.po
/usr/pkgsrc/mk/tools/msgfmt.sh: Cannot fork
gmake[2]: *** [en_CA.gmo] Error 2
gmake[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
[...]
I guess I'm too short in memory to play that game :)
