It's not uncommon for C++ packages to need multiple hundred MB up to a few GB of RAM per compiler to build (here it gave up after 550MB). If the mipsel buildds cannot tolerate 4 parallel compilers because of RAM constraints, I'd suggest reducing the current parallel=4 config on the buildd. But this is unlikely a packaging problem or a bug in the code. Chris
