hi Craig,i have increase the  swap  space ,but i got the same
error message,it looks like that the increased swap space doesn't make
any influence,why?

maybe i should swich to the debug version.

Probably, yes :)

I recently compiled an opt version of the head revision of opal and
pwlib on my RedHat 9 box with only 256M of real RAM, using gcc 3.3.4.
I'll repeat this with gcc 3.3.5 once I finish downloading it, but I
don't expect anything different.

The figures above show that you don't have very much swap space. My rule
of thumb is to have at least twice as much swap as real memory. In fact,
my box described above has 1G of swap, whereas you have less swap than
real memory.

Try adding some more swap space (use "swapon" to do this) and try again.
I recommend at least 1G of swap, as you have 512M of RAM
