Problem: Exhausting virtual memory building gdb 4.9

System:
   Gateway 386/33, 32MB
   SCO ODT 2.0 - UNIX 3.2v4
   GCC 2.4.3
   GAS 2.1
   GLD 2.2
   
When it's time to link gdb my system runs out of memory.  Has anyone else
seen this?

I've tried shutting down all other proccess, I've even tried it in single
user mode to free as much memory as possible - no luck.

One thing I have noticed is when I run u386mon at the same time the link
fail with the out of virtual memory error but there is still about 5MB of
physical memory and 11 MB of swap space left.

Error shown below:
