For the record, I've now managed to avoid these errors by moving my
maemo work to a higher spec machine.  (Specifically, from a Pentium
III 800MHz with 128Mb RAM, to a Pentium III 935MHz with 256Mb RAM.)

Of course, it could be that some other factor in the move was
relevant, such as the way I installed or used scratchbox (with the
benefit of more experience), but my guess is that performance was the
main factor.
