[vtkusers] vtk5 dies with java.lang.OutOfMemoryError on amd64

[Sebastiaan]

Hi,

I am trying to build vtk-5.0.0 on a AMD64 system, but the build dies with an 
error:

(...)
Listing /var/tmp/portage/vtk-5.0.0-r4/work/VTK/Wrapping/Python/vtk/wx ...

The system is out of resources.
Consult the following stack trace for details.
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
make[2]: *** [java/vtk/vtkBuildAllDriver.class] Error 3
make[1]: *** [Wrapping/Java/CMakeFiles/VTKBuildAll.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2


The Java engine installed is blackdown 1.4.2.03. I have no problems building 
this on a similar x86 system (Gentoo Linux).

After this error, running 'make' again resumes the build and compiles VTK 
correctly.

The latest CVS version still has this problem. I am unsure if this is an error 
in Blackdown java on amd64 or VTK.

Any ideas?

Greetz,
Sebastiaan
