I used the out-of-the-box tomsrtbt 2.0.88 to do a recover files from a W2K system I 
was locked out of. Files were on a NTFS partition. However when I went to use pax/tar 
to pack up a directory tree, it barfed with a "mem_get() of of memory" error. I 
managed to track this down to when it was trying to traverse a tree branch only 
containing empty directories. It seemed to be going around the same directories at the 
one level without stepping to the next part of the tree. I successfully worked around 
this by using find and cpio.

Anyone else seen this? If I get a chance over the next week or so I'll look at the 
code if no one else is.
