Better late than never.  To fix this, I just remove the object file and
run make again, and keep doing it until it get's over this.

If it still doesn't work, try and make gcc use a different part of
memory, by using some memory-hog type program, such as netscape.

These tricks usually get around gcc'isms such as these and signal 11.
