That's weird -- modern systems don't return ENOMEM on alloc, they
either crash or send signals to random processes (which usually
results in killing your X server).

What's the result of ``ulimit -a''?

What system are you using?  If it's Linux, what's the result of
``cat /proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory''?
