Nope. The only limitation is the amount of available memory. On my 
Windows system I get no segfaults, even when allocating the full 
490mb. I know precious little about OS X, but I think that you should 
check how much memory your system is allocating to programs.

See above. I believe that you may have run into some sort of system 
limitation. There must be ways of increasing system resources 
available to applications on OS X (there is on unix systems, and I 
believe that OS X is, at its heart, a unix system).
