Hallo!

After changing my outofthebox debian-TeX to TeX Live 7, I have the
following
problem:

-----------------simple.tex---------------------------------
\starttext
Test.
\stoptext
------------------------------------------------------------
TeXExec 3.2 - ConTeXt / PRAGMA ADE 1997-2003

            executable : pdfetex
                format : cont-en
             inputfile : simple
                output : standard
             interface : en
          current mode : none
               TeX run : 1

This is pdfeTeX, Version 3.14159-1.00b-pretest-20020211-2.1 (Web2C 7.3.7x)
fatal: memory exhausted (xmalloc of 60000008 bytes).

              run time : 1 seconds

        total run time : 4 seconds
---------------------------------------------------------------
Why does pdfeTeX need so much memory?
What's wrong here?

Wolfgang
