I am also a victim of this problem. In my case, unfortunately, the 
problem is rare and transient. It occurs intermittently and can be 
resolved by restarting the make. I can confirm that the problem is not 
related to a specific port. I have experienced it with gdal, 
qt6-webengine, and rust at minimum.


I'm guessing it may be related to memory pressure before OOM. 
Unfortunately, I'm out of ideas now...
