At http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=make , I searched with search
tool, on bugs, the string "*** Virtual memory exhausted" and it
returned me two bugs.

The first one is the #3117. As comment for this bug, we have "This bug
is a duplicate of Bug #1517, which has been fixed. See that bug report
for a patch.". 

So, maybe the patch you are looking for is there:
http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=1517&group_id=71
