I can confirm that "fink install jam" shows similar (mis-)behaviour.

%.acrux ~> fink install jam
Password:

The following package will be installed or updated:
 jam
perl(4670) malloc: *** vm_allocate(size=229376) failed (error code=3)
perl(4670) malloc: *** error: can't allocate region
perl(4670) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in szone_error to debug
Out of memory!
