I'm running SunOS 4.1.4B on a Sparc 2.

When running makeinfo, I get:
   Making info file `elisp' from `elisp.texi'.
     @include intro.texi
   Virtual memory exhausted in realloc ().
   Abort (core dumped)

I inserted a printf statement to show the size of area
being allcated, and got:
   Making info file `elisp' from `elisp.texi'.
     @include intro.texi
   nbytes = 40
   Virtual memory exhausted in realloc ().
   Abort (core dumped)

The machine has about 60 Mbytes swap space, and by listening
to the disk, it doesn't sound like the swap space is being
used at all.  Is there a corrupted pointer here?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Many thanks ...
