First thing is to determine whether it really runs out of memory.
Please run go32-v2 with no arguments in the same DOS box where you run
Make and see what does it print.  If the sum of the two numbers it
reports is less than 64MB, you should bump up the DPMI memory setting
of the DOS box in the property sheets (if you don't know how, the
DJGPP FAQ list explains it, in section 15.6).

If go32-v2 *does* report 64MB, you might try other solutions, in
particular enlarging the stack of the compiler, see section 6.4 of the
FAQ.

Finally, it could really be that sinst.cc requires preposterous
amounts of memory to compile.  C++ programs (and some pathological C
programs) sometimes exhibit this behavior with GCC.  Try to divide the
source into several files if you can.
