It looks like you are running amavisd-new-2.6.1, not 2.6.2.

There are a couple of reasons why fork can fail, the usual one
is a shortage on swap space. Increase swap space, of reduce
the number of amavisd child processes.

Out of curiosity, I'd be interested how 2.6.2 (-rc2) fares in the same
environment - code dealing with forking and pipe creation has been
revised, so you'd hopefully get a more informative failure reason.
