[gmx-users] Memory allocation - xpm2ps

Too bad, I am having this problem with 4.5 now.
The xpm file with larger size will counter this problem while smaller ones are fine.
Never had any problem with previous version.

As I said before, you have to actually re-compile and install the git version of
Gromacs to see any effect.  Further, simply replacing a file likely will not
work due to a multitude of code changes that have taken place in other source files.

Yes, there was a bug introduced in version 4.5.  Please either install the git
version properly, use xpm2ps included in version 4.0.7, or wait for the release
of version 4.5.2.
