For me it dies while compling, no errors and it happens at different places.
I have different Hardware though:

Intel PR440FX dual 200mhz pent. pro(256K cache) 128megs ram 200meg swap
DPT 2124 Cacheing Raid controller w/32meg cache. >> Seagate ST15150W
partitioned :
sd0s1a on /      100 meg
sd0s1b on swap 200 meg
sd0s1e on /var   300 meg
sd0s1f on /usr    3.25 gig
sd0s1g on /usr/obj 270 meg

 Adaptec 7880 on board (Only have a CDROM connected to this)

Also I'm not running X  when doing the make -j8 world
