[gentoo-user] gcc fails and then succeeds - definitely a problem?

The gcc update just failed to compile on one of my systems with a
segfault, but then succeeded after trying again even though I didn't
change anything. Does that indicate a hardware problem for sure?
Should I run memtester? Any other tests to run? Nothing in dmesg.

Building gcc usually requires large amount of memory. May be you
haven't enough first time.
