Such a filesystem size will be ffs2, which means it uses
sys/lib/libsa/ufs2.c support, which looks like it allocates 64K * 5
storage areas (or more) and blows the heap.

That code is largely unchanged since the beginning.  The allocator
has provided more space, not less.

So -- what changed?  Someone made choices to hit that condition.  This
is the first instance in approximately 10 years.

Maybe we'll fix it.  But you should install your system using the
correct defaults.
