Re: [Pnet-developers] [Bug #2806] CSCC virtual memory exhausted

[Norbert Bollow]

Proposed oneliner fix:

Change error message to "Out Of Memory, or Broken System Library" 

Slightly more sophisticated fix:  Return this quirky error message only
in "-nostdlib" mode.

Anything more sophisticated that this is probably a waste fo time.
