It would help greatly if you gave information on the C compiler that you are using.  Is it clang or gcc?  Which version?  Some versions of clang and gcc contain bugs which cause them to generate incorrect machine code when compiling Gambit.  Some versions of these C compilers generate correct code, but take a lot of RAM memory and compilation time to compile Gambit.  So it is good to choose the C compiler well.

I tend to use gcc to develop and build Gambit.  This thread explains more: https://mercure.iro.umontreal.ca/pipermail/gambit-list/2012-May/005946.html
