I had a similar problem using OPUS make.  I believe the cause is insufficient
conventional memory when make tries to run gcc.  The solution with OPUS make
was to add the command line option which tells it to swap itself out to disk
before running commands.  I've never looked to see if Borland make has such
an option.  If not, there is a shareware utility called SHROOM (shell room)
which might help.  (SHROOM2D.ZIP is available in the msdos.sysutl directory at
Simtel20 and mirror sites.)
