gcc, very high template-depth

Hello,

I try to compile polymake on cygwin.

Compiling works fine as long as cc1plus does not occupy more memory than 
I have RAM (ca. 750 MB) on my machine. After this it gets of course 
really slow.

I think the problem is, that polymake uses templates very heavy and 
compiles with --ftemplate-depth-200.

When I reduce the value as much to resolve my memory problems, I get of 
course errors about template-depth not high enough.

I must confess I am rather not a expert for gcc, therefore can I do 
something to reduce memory consumptions or any other tricks to compile 
polymake? I have tried the optimization parameters -O -O1 -03.

On Linux it seems to compile with even less RAM than I have.

Polymakes home :

Source Distribution :
    http://www.math.tu-berlin.de/polymake/download/polymake-2.1.0.tar.bz2
(without latest patches)

I used:

   make configure
      C++ compiles   = g++
      C compiler     = gcc
      Opt. Level     = -O
      compiler flags = -march=pentium4

   make

Sincerely,
