Well, I use Gentoo as well, Duncan, but I'm master of my box and still use the
old gcc:

address@hidden ~ $ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 3.4.6 (Gentoo 3.4.6-r1, ssp-3.4.5-1.0, pie-8.7.9)

I just build Pan 0.115 straight from the tarball without any problems using
the regular defaults and the resultant binary works perfectly fine.  

Perhaps this is the problem while trying to build Pan on a 512M box:

0292 doug      25   0  601m 591m 5060 R   99 29.2   1:01.46 0 cc1plus

It's not a gcc or Pan bug, you just need some more RAM or grab binaries from
someone that does.
