The failure is this:

01:08:22 g++: internal compiler error: Terminated (program collect2)

And since it happens at the link step I suspect an OOM condition. The link starts 12 minutes earlier at 00:56:21.

(Maybe this is a nodejs/build issue but it could also be that e.g. gyp needs to deparallelize this phase of the build.)

I think these are only happening on test-osuosl-aix61-ppc64_be-3 (nodejs/build#1893).

[bnoordhuis]

Okay, I'll close this issue pending resolution of nodejs/build#1893.
