Hi all,

I am on an Intel Mac running OS 10.4.10 with Mac VM 3.8.18beta1U.  If I
download the stock 3.8-6667 and go through with the updates, I can get to
3.8.2 until it hits the update called "6750stringAndCharFixes-mir..." at
which point the whole thing locks up.  If I let it sit, eventually it
crashes with an out of memory error similar to the following:

I can totally reproduce this error every single time.  If memory serves, I
was able to run these updates on a PPC machine just fine.

Thanks,
Tim
