Why when I try to compile do I get an error saying, “Virtual memory exhausted: Invalid argument” ?

Get the latest packages. Hopefully, this bug has been fixed in the latest version. I changed the memory manager that gcc uses in order to work around a bug in one of the POSIX functions in Cygwin (mmap). Compilation might be slower on machines with lower memory because it now uses a less efficient scheme which may take more memory. This might introduce new bugs, but I have not seen anything yet.
