Two comments, it's hard to provide any assistance with this since you don't include any logs so we don't know what the exact problem is.

However, I suggest you just use the gnuradio that comes packaged in the latest ubuntu. 'apt-get install gnuradio'. If you insist on a source build then I always like to do at least a apt-get build-dep gnuradio on fresh OS installs. (but it's worth asking yourself if you really need the source build, especially since it's causing so much grief)

A further comment--that seg fault is probably the compiler running out of memory--not very graceful of it, to be sure.

You should add more swap space to make up for lower system memory (how much do you have?)
