Installation on Debian testing with Python 3.13 consumes insane amount of memory

Hello. I am on Debian testing. When I try to pip3 install coincurve it allocates memory over and over till my PC freezes and then OOM killer does its job. Output:

Collecting coincurve
  Using cached coincurve-20.0.0.tar.gz (122 kB)
  Installing build dependencies ... done
  Getting requirements to build wheel ... done
  Installing backend dependencies ... done
  Preparing metadata (pyproject.toml) ... -^canceled
ERROR: Operation cancelled by user

System information:

$ pip3 --version
pip 25.0 from /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pip (python 3.13)
$ uname -a
Linux darthDebian9 6.12.11-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.12.11-1 (2025-01-25) x86_64 GNU/Linux

I have 16GB of RAM, few GBs of swap and I have a highend Ryzen 9 3900X.

Build and installation on FreeBSD 14.2 with pip 23.3.2 and python 3.11 works fine.
