Let me preface this by saying I have not been using FreeBSD
for very long but believe I solved the problem you are seeing in
one of two ways:

	1) added more swap (180 MB from 64 MB); or
	2) accepted the 64MB limit and did not use "MaxMem" to
	expand to the real 92MB.

I am using the FreeBSD-3.0-cam source though (basically
FreeBSD-3.0).

good luck,
Scott
