Sure... that's pretty standard I'd say.

Aaaaanywaaaayyyy... I did ask around to some compiler guys and that
looks like an out-of-memory issue (e.g. no more memory left on the node
where the compilation was running)...

I think it's rather a matter of sizing the running jobs queue to the
actual capacity we have in the back-end. I remember something similar
happened during summer / end-of summer time where jobs were randomly
failing due to infra issues.
Perhaps, another approach (instead of reducing the number of distros)
could be to have only couple of patches building at a time. I would
imagine that could be driven by Jenkins jobs/queues/etc.
In that way, we could try addressing the capacity issue without reducing
distros support.
