This sort of trouble started pretty much with my work on the SCSI driver,
based on commit aa5311c454ed0ff959adca29c65be2157f52a84c (3.13-rc7). Do
you
know of any memory leak affecting m68k, introduced between last November
and
3.13-rc7?

How much RAM and swap do you have?

14 MB ST-RAM, 512 MB FastRAM, 2GB swap.

Modern kernels just require more memory...

Surely not that much more, I hope?

512 MB should be plenty ;-)
My poor m68k box has 500 MB less...
