Well, I've checked /proc/swaps and I've discovered that my swap file
weren't started last time I've run my virtual machine. I've restarted a
compilation and it seems that Qt was well compiled and QtMoko has begun
its own compilation.

I've found that QEMU has a vm monitor on "Ctrl+Alt+2" were we can manage
snapshots with commands like "info snapshots" "savevm" and "loadvm" (you
should "stop" your vm before creating a new snapshot and then "cont"inue
it after you load it).
I'm using ccache now too and I confirm that the first compilation is
long :)

Thanks!
Adrien
