Hi Ahcheong,

  I am sorry but I am unable to reproduce this problem.  Are you
  definitely using the latest version of the master sources ?

  I am also not sure that this is really a problem.  The attempt
  to allocate a ridiculously large amount of memory will fail,
  and the code in the BFD library ought to detect this and
  behave appropriately.  (If it does not then this is a real bug).

  But just attempting to allocate a huge amount of memory is not
  necessarily a failure, although it does cause issues with memory
  checkers like the address sanitizer.  If you run with 
  "allocator_may_return_null=1" enabled, are there any further 
  problems ?

Cheers
  Nick
