Ok, I found what the problem is.

The ,v file for the binary file is ~900MB. On Linux, there are a couple
of limits to how much memory a process can have and it looks like it
can't be more than 2GB (on a 32bit system, anyway).

I have reconfigure my system limits to allow users and processes to use
the whole 2GB, however this is only a stopgap measure. After a few
releases, I will once again run into this problem, because the file will
hit the 2GB mark.

What are my options at this point?

Thanks,
