Dear Bug Team!

I got this while doing ediff-directories to sync eshell-mode sources
with GNU Emacs'.

Here's the gdb output:

initialized font DejaVu Sans Mono-15:weight=200
initialized metrics ascent 19 descent 5 width 12 height 23
initialized font DejaVu Sans Mono-15:weight=200
Memory full, try to recover.
You should clean up, kill this Emacs, and start a new one.
