 Compiling ffmpeg on XO-1.75 with 12.1.0 os6 ends in failure. From a clean
 install, run the following commands:

 {{{
 sudo yum install -y --nogpgcheck yum-utils gcc make

 wget -c
 http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/development/17/SRPMS/ffmpeg-0.8.9-1.fc17.src.rpm

 rpm -i ffmpeg-0.8.9-1.fc17.src.rpm

 tar -xjf ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES/ffmpeg-0.8.9.tar.bz2
 cd ffmpeg-0.8.9
 ./configure
 make
 }}}

 after approximately 20 minutes, it ends with:

 {{{
 libavcodec/ansi.c:162:17: note: ‘width’ was declared here
 CC      libavcodec/apedec.o
 libavcodec/apedec.c: In function ‘entropy_decode.constprop.1’:
 libavcodec/apedec.c:470:1: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault
 Please submit a full bug report,
 with preprocessed source if appropriate.
 See <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla> for instructions.
 The bug is not reproducible, so it is likely a hardware or OS problem.
 make: *** [libavcodec/apedec.o] Error 1
 }}}

 I managed to capture the gcc command line:

 {{{
 gcc -I. -I/home/olpc/ffmpeg-0.8.9 -D_ISOC99_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64
 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200112 -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600

 libavcodec/apedec.o libavcodec/apedec.c
 }}}

 It doesn't always fail but happened on 3 different laptops. If it
 succeeds, make fails with the same error on a different file. I haven't
 successfully compiled ffmpeg.

 Adding swap doesn't seem to make a difference.
