  I saw the problem too on one machine, it broke make check  ,
  coincidentally it s also an F-10 x86_64 :-)

 etc ....

 and with the patch everything works again on that machine (Intel core
 duo with 2GB memory). Still I hope we were not allocating a gigabyte of
memory for that call (if yes there is a serious fix needed even with a
factor of 8 less).

  So applied and commited, thanks a lot, but I'm still puzzled, why did
we end out of memory, I will look quickly
