David: The exact command this time was a "tar jxf

1.18 but has happened with prior versions too. I replicated it after
my post by manually untarring it on the command line and can almost
always replicate the problem with any large (GCC/kernel) tarball. If
I shut down all other processes, the untar will go longer but
eventually the oom-killer will be invoked.
