Faulty memory? Got something like this once and then it was a memory module
that was broken. Try and check it with memcheck86 (think I got the name
right :))
I used memtest and it showed a bunch of errors on my ancient 128 MiB
chip. So I removed it, but even with the (presumably good -- only let
memtest run for about 3 minutes) 256 MiB I have the same problems. I
don't run anything heavily graphical, so RAM rarely got up to 50%
usage back with 384 MiB. Hence, I should be fine (I long gave up
hoping to play games on my machine); but I have the same problems,
with programs taking long to start and strange happenings caused by
gcc. Any other ideas?

PS: Unless I got it wrong, it's memtest86 and it proved very valuable.
By the way, does it ever stop? After two hours and 13 thousand errors
I got fed up and removed the chip.
