Both RAM and disk space are non-issues on my system[1] and last
night's ooo rebuild still managed to fail (too far away from my logs
to see that error easily, but pretty sure it was module 'sw' rather
than 'chart2'). I restarted it this morning, but didn't get to stay
and watch... and I'll be out of town all weekend. Maybe next week I'll
have time to see if it's willing to cooperate... same general error
message as OP, but different place in the build.

[1] 4GB ram, less than 1gb used when I'm not compiling, and I was
building ooo with portage temp pointed toward my half-empty 500GB
drive (since it wasn't going to fit in tmpfs like nearly everything
else does).
