Increase paging space ...  You need a lot ...    Hit spacebar for more info...

The binder (/usr/lib/bind called by ld to do the work), need large amounts
of paging space, somehow dependent on the total size of all your .a's.  Our
system has 48 Mb of core and 128 Mb of paging space - and we only allow one
ld at a time.

What happens is that the AIX kernel realizes that the paging space is too low
and it starts killing processes, in your case the binder is killed, which frees
up lots of paging space.

It's almost time for a FAQ list here, isn't it?
