krb5 with anonymous kinit, "Cannot allocate memory"

Poking around with strace, and running krb5kdc with debug enabled, I see
no smoking gun that there is a lack memory problem.
Searching the kerberos mailing list and other forums I see similar
reports, but no explanation of cause or possible solutions. A bit lost
here. It was working great for a month.
Here's what happens when I run kinit -n:

Any suggestions appreciated.
