Omit way ghci for test case outofmem2
The outofmem2 test is intended to verify that the runtime system reacts suitably to a request to allocate an amount of memory that exceeds the available heap space. See trac ticket #1791 (closed) for additional details.
However, testing this with ghci does not seem to make sense. In any case, on my PPC Mac OS X, outofmem2(ghci) succeeds and I have observed that this is true also for a number of other builders.
I suggest to simply omit the ghci way for the outofmem2 test case and I have attached a patch for this.
Best regards Thorkil
