You have libxul installed?

Anyways what helped me during linking was, to use -j1 as a compiler
flag instead of -j7 (see the file ".mozconfig" for this). I also
deleted the "-pipe" option.
The build suceeded on an old X40 Laptop, 1.5GB Ram/1.6GB Swap.

I also used the mozilla provided "mach" tool to configure and build the
browser.

@Loic, whats better here?

Good luck!
