Wild guess incoming...

My active experience on HP stuff ends with HP9000's and HPUX, but could
it be an ulimit settings perhaps?

The article doesn't seem to set anything to 'unlim' or similar.

Older UNIX versions tend to limit process sizes, open files and such
and especially compiling GCC and the like tends to munch address space...

So it may 'want' to page out, but is limited by the max process size
and can't malloc anymore.
