Testing on Linux:

$ ulimit -m 128000
$ ulimit -v 196000
$ python test_MIMEText.py
[...]
Traceback (most recent call last):

MemoryError

Ok. Setting a "low" ulimit for memory and vmemory, raise a MemoryError
on Linux too.

Chacking the same limits on FreeBSD, they are set to unlimited, so the
problem should not occour there.
