I can reproduce this.  From bisecting prior revisions, I think the
problem first appeared with this change:

2009-03-24  Jason Rumney  <jasonr <at> gnu.org>

	* fileio.c (Fsubstitute_in_file_name): Always work on a copy.
	Calculate total size precisely.  Decode environment variables
	before substituting.  (Bug#38)

If I revert this change---the CVS diff is shown below---then the problem
goes away.  Though, with such memory problems, that's no guarantee that
this change is directly responsibe for the bug.

Jason, could you quickly double-check this checkin?  Thanks.
