Summary: not enough virtual memory to compile pcn
Keywords: virtual memory pcn BSD

I am attempting to port pcn to a i486 running NetBSD.  We have 16M ram and 
100M swap space.  While it is compiling we get an error saying that there is 
insufficient virtual memory.  Does anyone know how to increase the size of 
your virtual memory without buying more ram?  Is there some method of using 
symbolic links or something of the sort to increase the size of virtual 
memory?
