While compiling TeX 3.0, I get this error:


#define stringvacancies 74000L
#define stringvacancies 8000L
#define poolsize 100000L
#define poolsize 32000L
#define savesize 4000
#define savesize 600
#define memtop 262140L
#define memtop 2999L
        touch stamp-trip
        make SITEDIR=".." CC="gcc" OPT="-g -O" LDFLAGS="-g" initex
        gcc -g -O -I.. -DINITEX -c extra.c && mv extra.o iextra.o
        gcc -g -O -I.. -DINITEX -c itex.c && mv itex.o initex.o
gcc: Program cc1 got fatal signal 6.
*** Error code 1

Stop.

Can anybody tell me what this error is?  I can't find any documentation on
such things in the gcc manual.  Meanwhile, I'll be investigating.

Thanks for any help,
