Did you try that advice to use an older ld?  Did it help?  If not, you 
will have to find out whether splitting the library into several files 
helps (it sometimes does).  I would suggest to extract all the object 
files from that library into a directory and try link them as .o files.  
There are some cases where the ``memory exhausted'' message means that 
some (all?) object files in the library are in the AOUT format (as 
opposed to COFF) whose support in ld is incomplete; in these cases, 
linking the files inside a library doesn't work, but they will link 
properly as .o object files.
