BSD based system + big message problems ==> upgrade to procmail version 3.12
(realloc() under BSD systems is a inefficient operation. 3.12 detects
this during configuration and tweaks its allocation routine to use a
exponential growth.)
Era also previously made the same recommendation in a reply. I upgraded
it to 3.12 and it indeed fix some things. All except one (a 9.9M message)
of the messages that was erroring out before now processed successfully.
