While building the archive itself works fine, ranlib fails to build a symbol table for the archive. So why is that not a problem for the Apple port? - Simple answer: They are building WebCore as a framework (dynamic library). :-) The available memory is for sure not the problem in my case. Because even when building/linking i still have about 6GB free (free+inactive).
