Libssh2: Memory Allocation Failure

Dear User Group:

After running the test program attached to this message
for several hours under uCLinux on a Coldfire 5249 CPU
the following memory allocation described below occurred.
The system I ran the test on certainly has at least
2 MB spare memory and I don't understand the reason.

The dump produced by Libssh2 follows this message.
Is anybody interested in this problem or do you
have an idea about the cause ?

Best Regards,

Paul R.
