Does GCC 2.96 have trouble building SWIG 3.1.17?

From: Karl Fogel <kfogel_at_newton.ch.collab.net>

Hi, I'm trying to build SWIG 3.1.17 on RedHat 7.0, using GCC 2.96. I
think what I'm encountering is a GCC problem, not a SWIG problem, but
wanted to know if anyone else had seen it (and maybe knows a
workaround), before I upgrade GCC. Google seems to know nothing about
this, which makes me wonder if my tool chain is broken in some rare
and special way :-).

The compiler runs out of memory while trying to compile s-exp.cxx:

   g++ -I./../Include -I./../DOH/Include -I./../Preprocessor \
       -I./../Swig -I../Include -g -O2 -c -o s-exp.o s-exp.cxx

   Cannot allocate 3272671200 bytes after allocating 54630972 bytes
   make[1]: *** [s-exp.o] Error 1
   make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/kfogel/src/SWIG-1.3.17/Source/Modules1.1'
   make: *** [Modules1.1] Error 2

There is a long wait (half an hour or so) before the "cannot allocate"
error. A full configuration and build transcript is given at the end
of this mail.

Does this problem look familiar to anyone?

(Btw, I was able to build fine on a Debian box, using GCC 2.95.4.)

Please send any replies to me, as I'm not on the swig@cs list.

Thanks,
