I had this idea already, but increaseing the momory size didn't help:

I still wonder whether I should use palloc() or pgport_palloc() and what I
could do in order to get the palloc() version properly linked. In my eyes
dirmod.c should be involved somehow as that is the place where palloc() is
redefined.

BTW, the same happens under MinGW.
