That is very strange, compiling 'no' should not take more than a couple of 
hundred MB -- and not over 1 GB as you describe it.  Which version of GCC are 
you using, btw? And how far does gcc's memory consumption actually grow (just 
roughly, say what does 'top' show if you just watch it)?

P.S.: I don't like Igor's solution of adding external files for LE to search 
and open, that just makes the installation more complicated.  I'd rather hack 
GCC to make sure that it can handle this kind of code :-).  The solution to 
remove the 'no' entry from the Makefile.am is definitely a possible 
workaround.
