may be problem with 32-bit case is limited _virtual_ address space - no
more than 4gb,  and some of it eaten by kenel mapping pci devices and such.
Ironically so-called PAE linux  kernel can address more physical ram than
4gb, yet individual processes limited to some 3gb... or even less (depend
on kernel configuration, vm_split I think...)

well, they not false just rare (due to limited 32-bit testing). Not like we
can do much about memory exhausting errors.. but this might deserve some
footnote.
