Let me guess, the build has been going on for quite some time before it dies? Also, are you running X Windows at the same time as doing the make world? Which would cause you to start swapping. I've seen the problems you describe on my machine, but have been able to get around them by mounting /usr with softupdates/noatime and not using the box when the world is being built (hence, very little swap space is used).
