→Wrapping things up
When I woke up, the build process had died prematurely. I googled the error message and there wasn't much of a solution to the problem other than reinstalling gcc. Since memory was an issue here, I assumed it must have "crashed" due to lack of memory.
So I ran the build command again and the build process picked up from where it ended. I concluded that it really was due to lack of memory. This problem continued to occur several times after (each time at different points of the code, but with the same error code).
Since Gnome probably sucks up enough memory by itself, I was down decided to switch to console mode (I know, why didn't I think about it before?). After I did that, I stopped the last resortGnome Display Manager (gdm) and VMWare (since it was running as well).
