Out-Of-Memory-BUG with absurdly huge WIM (maybe also other)
A free file archiver for extremely high compression

7-ZIP behaves badly if it runs out of memory, see shot:
http://www.file-pasta.com/file/0/WIMERREX.PNG
http://www.file-pasta.com/file/0/WIMLISTF.PNG
repoduced with WIM (550 MiB, 25K files) ...
with 16 MiB RAM it says "Cannot open as archive" (no shot)
with 32 MiB RAM one can extract a few files (2.) ...
but a full listing crashes with an internal error (1.)
with 64 MiB RAM the listing completes (3.) and is bloated (4.5 MiB)
If the listing abort is not avoidable, then the error message should be corrected, also
if the archive evaluation can't complete the message should be fixed.
"Gave up, insufficient RAM to complete operation"
I'll try to fix these things in 7-zip 9.15.
