Set a break point on the mlt_log_fatal() line 142 in mlt_pool.c, run
kdenlive in the debugger, and see what self->size is. Alternative, add
self->size to the log message on that line. I suspect Kdenlive is pushing
MLT or one of its effects into corner that makes it try to allocate
something really huge.
