`Out of memory' problem on commercial program ...



Hi,

I wonder if someone could help me out ... I'm trying to run Microway's NDP
Fortran compiler (which they say runs fine on Red Hat 5.1/5.2) on Debian
2.1.  I had it running on my old system (Debian, mostly from about a year
ago), but after I upgraded to slink, it failed with `Out of memory'
errors.  It's not the kernel - I've tried downgrading again, with no
effect, and the executable is statically linked, so it can't be the shared
libraries ... so what *could* it be? 

I enclose the beginning of the strace output below - it doesn't enlighten
me, but maybe it may mean something to one of you ...

TIA for any help,

Nikhil.
