Dynamically linked ELF executables contain an "interpreter" field
which typically names the dynamic loader (e.g. /lib/ld-linux.so.1 or
/lib/ld-linux.so.2). This message means that your system has so
little free memory it can't even load ld-linux.so, which makes it a
bit difficult to run anything. :-)
