Perhaps a broken PFB/TTF file?
Or a circularly defined VF?
Or a severely broken ls-R database?
Or an erronuous format file?

Running the executable under the debugger (gdb) will help to pinpoint
the problem in these cases (the backtrace should show you from where
xmalloc() was called).

Also, there might not even *be* a problem. One of the reasons
for malloc()'s failure can be the system-imposed limits on users
(try 'sh -c ulimit' on the shell prompt)
