Comment(by simonmar):

 I have tried a program with a space leak, and can't reproduce it.  Looking
 at the code I can see how some of the calculations might overflow on a
 64-bit machine, but not until a heap size of about 16Gb.  I'll fix these
 anyway, but from your results it looks more like a bug in the calculations
 (something has gone negative) than an integer overflow.
