Terminate with bad_alloc exception, but no "new" in stack trace

C++ program is throwing this:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'St9bad_alloc' what(): std::bad_alloc

Which it appears to be thrown from new, but the stack trace doesn't show any calls to new:

Added debugging statements at the beginning of doLoad(), but it never gets to that point.

Stumped!

Any thoughts?

Maby the new call was inlined due to optimizations. Try to disable optimizations, at least in loaders/HttpLoader.cxx.

The new call may not be in the stack because it has already unwound at the point your application is terminating. I'd try to set a breakpoint at the moment the exception is thrown (e.g., using catch throw under gdb) -- at that point you'll see the cause of the exception in the stack.
