I tried to reproduce that old bug. I made some big ext2fs.static, one with 27MB, everyone worked. So, there are some possibilities to that problem.
 1) It was already solved by others patchs.
 2) It was never an GNU Mach bug, but a bug of an broken GCC.

So I suggest that this bug would be closed until we have a new case of that error, with more information of what happens.

Hi,

we have one report by an user that GNU Mach panics with a message like "unable to allocate contiguous memory" when ext2fs.static is not stripped (>13MB), while it works if ext2fs.static is stripped.  The user has 512 MB, so it's not shortage of RAM.
