You can use the VirtualMemory preflet on R5 and raise the swap file size.
This will actually help, I have 256 MB of RAM on one of my machines as
well,
and with the bigger swapfile, I can build Haiku.

Ok.

I commited DeskCalc, and I'm building/testing for R5 or Haiku. So it might
happen, that because Dano headers are cleaner (don't include as much stuff
as
R5 headers), that a missing include is suddenly exposed when you are
building
on Dano for the Dano target. So these missing includes need to be commited
in
the tree.

I know from when I build on R5 a lot of the new constants, for colors and

such, are missing. I think it's because the R5 and dano targets uses their
original headers and new values such as B_TOOLTIP_* from dano is not
available in R5, therefore B_WINDOW_INACTIVE_* from haiku is not in R5 or
Dano which leads to undeclared identifiers. Maybe there needs to be a
Compatibility header that adds new constants from Haiku back into R5 and
Dano so when those targets are used they can compile fully. just a thought.
