IIRC jam has a "piecemeal" modifier for problems like this one; wonder if it could help here (or maybe it's already in use but no succeeding?)

grep piecemeal /system/documentation/packages/jam/*

Clean already is piecemeal: actions piecemeal together existing Clean

We may need to tweak some internal limit, or bash.
