  Log:
  The limit on datasize in the install environment is 128M.  That's a bit
  too small for today's standards.  While loading packages sysinstall
  blows past this by a LOT but I think (hope...) that's caused by other
  bugs.  I'll look more into why sysinstall's memory use has gotten so
  out of control as it loads packages but independent of that there really
  is no reason to leave the limits on datasize and stacksize in place.  And
  they can cause problems for some of the things "modern packages" might
  be doing via pkg_add which gets run by sysinstall and would inherit the
  limits.
  
  Another insta-MFC probably coming, this is holding up 6.3-RC2.  Sysinstall's
  memory use is so out of control it blows past the current limit before it
  finishes loading either of the meta-packages kde or gnome...
