samba - Sep 2004 - Memory allocation error: failed to expand to 1108555744 bytes

I saw the following log entry when connecting to a print share on a
Samba 3.0.7 box from a Windows 2000 client.

I assume the attempt to allocate 1Gb+ of RAM has got to be wrong?

That's really strange.  corrupted tdb maybe ?  Never seen it before.
If you can reproduce the failure, let me know.
