Yes, this might indeed be the fact. I'm having serious troubles compiling 
the regression tests with gcc because it uses such enormous amounts of file 
space.

The machine in question has ~300MB tmp space which is ok for most tests but 
not for all. I'll try to play around with some env variables to see if it 
helps any.

A quick google search indicates that this is a problem with gcc on alpha 
when compiling with debug symbols. A possible workaround might be to use 
-gstabs instead of -g, I'll try it ASAP.
