malloc(): warning: recursive call

Just got this while running a script that uses mail(1) to send mail:

mail in malloc(): warning: recursive call
mail: Out of memory: Programming error

$ uname -a
FreeBSD schoner 6.1-STABLE FreeBSD 6.1-STABLE #11: Tue Aug 29  
09:46:29 CEST 2006     root@:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/EISENBOOT  i386
$ ls -l /etc/malloc.conf
ls: /etc/malloc.conf: No such file or directory

Running the script again did not produce the message again.

Cosmic rays? Anything I could try to find the cause?
