How long did you wait?

Perhaps you run out of memory? How much do you have?

Was the kernel not responding either?

You can search the net for general debugging techniques for such
occasions. E.g. you can (beforehand):

echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq

Then you can press Alt-SysRq-m to see (in text console) memory status
and Alt-SysRq-t to see some information about each running task.

Did you increase number of max open file descriptors?

Building the gwt ui is a very heavy process.

You can build for firefox only by passing BUILD_ALL_USER_AGENTS=0,
or not build it at all by passing BUILD_GWT=0.
