Paulius,
I had the exact same problem less than a week ago. The solution was the
edit my kernel build configuration file and add the following two lines:
options DISABLE_PSE
options DISABLE_PG_G
This changes the VM subsystem so that it uses 4 kB pages instead of the
default 4 MB pages. There is a bug in some hardware that only shows up
under heavy CPU & memory loading, such as a buildworld incurs.
Someone had told me that there is a 10% - 15% performance penalty from
doing this, but I don't run the system hard enough to be able to notice.

You are right, it's
CPU: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.80GHz (1799.81-MHz 686-class CPU)
real memory = 527695872 (503 MB)
on Intel 845G motherboard
and in make.conf I have CPUTYPE and other compile time options commented
out (because some time ago I was unable to build mozilla)
sometimes I get Signal 10...
