gtk+-2 compile error on amd64: gmem.c failed to allocate XXX bytes

[Bernd Knorr <bernd knorze de>]

Hi,
I have a problem compiling gtk+-2 on my athlon64 linux machine 
(Cross-LFS-system with gcc-4.0.2, glibc-20051024, glib-2.8.3, gtk+-2.8.6)
I get the following error:

This problem does not occur when compiling the 32-bit version.
I tried out older versions of glib and gtk and compiled the whole thing with 
gcc-3.3.6 without success.

Hope someone can help.
