As I clearly stated in the forum:

  fancystep.tex now compiles. Note: It's a *very* long compile,
  downloading the precompiled version from the homepage is recommended.

See http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=2024720

If you really want to compile fancystep.tex yourself you need to increase
the main memory to around 1500000.
