Off topic, but I have almost never been able to induce any errors by compiling 
the Linux kernel, no matter how faulty the hardware (RAM). Not using -j4 
though.

I found that compiling the zeroc-ice package (on Debian-based distros), which 
is huge, very reliably results in random crashes and aborts when relevant 
hardware is dying.

# apt-get source zeroc-ice
# cd zeroc-ice-?.?.?
# make
*blam*
