i'm going to start using time make buildworld and see if there is a
pattern here. this machine has been acting as a slackware gateway for
a little over a year with no hardware change, so i don't think it's
hardware related.

Actually, if the compile crashes out at different points, that's almost a sure sign of a hardware issue, most probably overheating. If you were just running the system as a network router before, that involves so little load that you wouldn't stress anything, but building world is a good stress test and marginal cooling will show symptoms like what you've described.
