Is this with or without the fix you just pushed? How much RAM does your
system have? I tried running with "-M 4.5G" on my 8GB machine earlier
today, and it ate through all of my RAM plus 4GB of swap before the OOM
killer terminated it.

In general, I think it's important to exercise cases where 32-bit
truncation issues and the like might arise, because otherwise they'll lie
around undetected until they bite some unsuspecting user at an
inopportune moment. But I don't know much about those specific tests, so
I can't really offer much of an opinion here.
