Sorry, won't be that easy. I didn't encounter the problem with earlier
(smaller) data-sets and even if I would put in the hours needed in order to
strip the schema and change the conversion tool both with the uncertainty
that I'd be reproducing the proper sequence of (trigger) events, I wouldn't
be able to provide the dataset itself (i.e. non-disclosure)

Will do that for starters.
Hold on, I thought that this error message would be generated from numerous
places in the code but it isn't. I'll recompile with debugging enabled and
put breakpoints on the appropriate lines to produce a backtrace.
<some work is done>
Ok, using --enable-cassert might not be such a good idea for now, since it
triggers a trap very early on in the conversion:
TRAP: FailedAssertion("!(((ntp)->t_data)->t_infomask & 0x0010)", File:
"catcache.c", Line: 1729)
So for now I have disabled assertions again and will focus on creating the
backtrace for the memory alloc problem first.
When needed / wanted I can always try and go over any assertion failures
later.
Will be able to post a backtrace in a few hours, I hope.
