Comment (by diver):

Ran into this problem again while trying to compile openjdk in a VM. I had
to increase swap size to make compilation it not crash during compilation
as I didn't have enough free space on /boot since the anyboot image has
only so much space.

So I changed volume for the swap thinking that VirtualMemory would be
smart enough to create a swap file with reasonable size.
I rebooted, tried to compile openjdk again and got into the same error
with not enough virtual memory. Preflet showed 50Mb on my /data partition.
