My question is can someone look into this issue so that building Lazarus in
environments where free memory is than 700MB does not result in Lazarus
build failures?
I've come across ld running out of memory when linking the lazarus
executable on my (very) old ARM laptop. You can try to pass
--no-keep-memory and --reduce-memory-overheads to ld, at the cost of
performance. I can't see how the build system has anything to do with
it.
It's always worked fine for me on things like NSLU-2 provided that the
overall memory (i.e. RAM + swap) is at least 512Mb. It will be
unfortunate if recent builds of FPC and/or Lazarus have pushed this
requirement upwards, but so far I've not seen any problems on a
Raspberry Pi (both 1 and 2) running Raspbian or Debian.
