Can you provide the text of the segfault (without that you are asking 
for speculation) ?

Could you try running the compile inside the gdb debugger, install any
debuginfo packages requested, and hopefully be able to get a backtrace ?

You aren't running out of disk (on certain partitions/lv's) or memory
during the build, are you ?

How long did the "large software system" take to complete ?
How far into the kernel build did it stop (time gcc ...) ?
