Proposed patch

Hi Aaron,

  Please could you try out this patch.  It only adds an extra error message,
  explaining why space could not be found to allocate the symbol table.  It
  does not make any attempt to allow objdump to continue working after
detecting
  the error.  I felt that doing so would likely add more bugs to objdump, 
  which would be bad.

  I only tested one file from the repository you indicated, so there may be
  others that cause objdump to run out of memory in other ways.  If you find
  any like this, please feel free to update this bug report with their names
  and I will investigate further.

Cheers
  Nick
