Comment(by zooko):

 What do we do about this ticket?  I don't know how to reproduce the
 original problem -- ~MemoryErrors due to unknown causes.  Brian, did you
 fix the {{KeyError}}} which was "a bug in {{{mutable-retrieve}}}?

 I think we should either close this ticket as something horrible like
 "{{{wontfix}}}" or else leave it open in the hopes that someone will
 stumble upon a reproducible {{{MemoryError}}} in exactly the same way that
 caused this error.

 Or, actually, I guess I would be satisfied if we could change the code so
 that future {{{MemoryErrors}}} would result in quick, clean, loud
 failures.  Maybe change the name of this ticket to "handle MemoryError
 quickly, cleanly, and loudly"?
