ragator segfaults

[Russell Fulton]

hmmm... .debug does not seem to work any more.  I nobbled the make files
in common and client to compile with symbols.

So yes, it seems to be  running out of memory get a lousy 4 byte int!
and the calloc return is not checked.

This is weird since the box has 300MB of free memory and the file I am
processing is about 15 MB.

Is it possible that the memory is being allocated out of some limited
kernel pool?

OS is OBSD 3.6

One more thing, it does work with file of under 10MB.
