Access violation when compiling

We have a large Delphi project which uses a lot of third-party components,
in particular several JfActiveSoft components and some Interbase components.
Compiling this project often causes an access violation in either ntdll.dll
or delphi32.exe. Once this happens, Delphi needs to be shut down (which
causes several more of the same access violations) before the project can
compile again.

All our other projects, none of which use these components, are fine. Am I
correct in thinking that one of the third-party components could be causing
this? If so, is there any way to discover which one? I've tried building
smaller test projects with some of the components, but haven't encountered
the error.

Alternatively, could the size of the project (it compiles to a 14MB
executable!) be a problem?

We are using Delphi 5 on Windows XP Pro. A re-install of everything made no
difference.
