I've built X11R5 and it's ready for installation, but when I did a
"make install >& install.log" it worked for some time and then
tried to link X386.  I simply quit with an "*** Error code 1".

Here's the end of my install.log:

*** Error code 1

Stop.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE:  I cleaned up the gcc line for readability.  Everything from "gcc"
through "-lm" was originally on one line!

The confusing thing is that there is no error/warning message.

It looks like the link is running out of VM, but I find this
hard to believe since I've got 8MB installed and 2 swap partitions
of 22MB and 20MB.

Does anyone have a port of pstat or vmstat that I can have/borrow/etc?
I pulled over the source from ftp.uu.net and I've modified most of names.c
But I can't get it working because I can't find a "_mbdinit" type of symbol
in the kernel...  (any guru's willing to send me a patch or source?)
