Thanks for the pointer. I think I've figured it it out now. When I
set up my laptop, I copied most of /etc/make.conf verbatim from my
desktop, including the line...
PORTAGE_TMPFS="/dev/shm"
That works just fine on my desktop with 8 gigs of ram. Unfortunately,
my laptop only has 4 gigs, so that doesn't work quite so well. I've
changed that line to...
PORTAGE_TMPFS="/tmp"
Builds will be slower, no doubt.
