Ah, yes. I can see how being asked about a cryptic error which isn't
explicitly defined in the documentation would make you resent your
hobby. Perhaps you would find a stream of questions like "how do i make
a ball?????" more gratifying.

Oh, wait, I'm being sarcastic. Silly me.

As to the section of the documentation you quoted, someone who isn't
intimately familiar with the source code might not find it obvious that
a lack of memory would be causing an error in a piece of code which was
designed to *prevent* an out-of-memory error.

I guess being a developer gives you the right to be as big an asshole as
you want.
