lrzip:
  Installed: 0.621-1
  Candidate: 0.621-1
  Version table:

In short, it's an up-to-date Jessie on amd64, installed lrzip over it.

 It seems to start decompressing and not crashes. Any more messages
you left out? Do you have any process controlling system in use? I
haven't seen any 'nice' message from lrzip yet.
My system shows:
$ lrzcat crash.lrz > /dev/null
Failed to malloc tmp_outbuf in open_tmpoutbuf
Cannot allocate memory
Fatal error - exiting

Seems to correctly handle the malloc error codes. I think the problem
lies somewhere else and not in lrzip itself. Is you Sid installation
up-to-date? Any package from experimental?

 Mine has 4+ GB. I don't think it worths to downgrade the machine to
less than 4 GB RAM just for a test. But well, who knows?

Thanks,
