Indeed I was wondering how much memory was available on that build machine. :-) > This line > > ifneq "$(wildcard /build/buildd-*/)" "" > > was supposed to detect if the package is being built on a buildd, but buildds > do longer use build directories like this.

I was thinking about removing this line in any case, as the limit is useful everywhere. >> on kfreebsd-amd64 it seems a compiler failure. > > I suspect that cc1plus was killed by OOM killer, for the same reason as above. Probably yes. The limit we set (~2GB) is not enough when we have to deal with 64bit build machines building the test suite with optimization flags turned on. So I implemented a workaround that sets different limits for the build phase and the check phase. Can you review my changes and eventually upload them? Bests, Giulio
