glib not compiling

[Alexander Ames Chimento]

Hi again,

I am having trouble compiling Glib. Whenever it starts to compile 
garray.c, it seems to stop there and do nothing. If I am running X, then 
everything slows down (i.e. windows are drawn slowly and text appearing 
on the screen lags). It just seems to sit there using up a massive 
amount of the computer's resources. Can anybody help me, please?

Alex
