It crashes my computer in Natty. This is a serious bug, because it
causes all kinds of havoc. Loss of data, for one thing.
However, this is not just a bug in gltext: it is a bug in xscreensaver.
Xscreensaver should adjust the OOM killer to preferentially kill its

I will try that as soon as I am back at that computer. I did want to
point out that someone on Gentoo had a similar problem problem and
there is a link to a patch. I am not sure if it is the same issue but
it looks pretty similar http://bugs.gentoo.org/351173

watched the memory usage in top and it just keeps rising pretty
dramatically until oom-killer is invoked and kills it.
