PHP Bug Type:     Compile Failure
Bug description:  "virtual memory exhausted: Cannot allocate memory" with
libmagic/apprentice.c

Description:
------------
I'm trying to compile PHP 5.3 on a VPS with 256MB of memory, but I keep
getting "out of memory" errors before 'make' completes. I've compiled 5.2.x
on the VPS before and I've freed up over 170MB of my 256MB of memory, but
still I get the following error (always the same file):

virtual memory exhausted: Cannot allocate memory
make: *** [ext/fileinfo/libmagic/apprentice.lo] Error 1

My host temporarily bumped my account up to 512MB of memory, but it still
took all of the free memory before failing (350MB+). Disabling the
extension that the file is from with "--disable-fileinfo" gets me beyond
the error and continues without running out of memory (until it hits a
different error in libgd, which I'm looking in to).

May be similar to http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=48593, but crashes
out
with insufficient memory rather than hanging indefinitely.

Reproduce code:
---------------
$ wget http://uk2.php.net/get/php-5.3.0.tar.bz2/from/this/mirror
$ tar -xjvf php-5.3.0.tar.bz2
$ cd php-5.3.0
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/php5-fcgi --with-kerberos=/opt
--with-layout=GNU --with-regex=php --with-gettext --enable-mbstring
--enable-libxml --with-pcre-regex=/opt --with-imap=shared --with-imap-ssl
--with-mysql=shared,/opt --with-mysqli=shared,/usr/bin/mysql_config
--with-mysql-sock=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock --with-libxml-dir=/opt
--enable-gd-native-ttf --with-gd=/opt --with-jpeg-dir=/opt
--with-freetype-dir=/opt --with-mcrypt --with-zlib-dir=/opt
--with-png-dir=/opt --with-config-file-scan-dir=/usr/local/etc/php.d
$ make

Expected result:
----------------
PHP compile to complete so that I can run "sudo make install".

Actual result:
--------------
[lots of compile output]
