You've got a corrupted memory pool for reasons that are unknowable.
Stopping and restarting the server will probably correct the problem.

There have been many many change to memory management in V1.5 and V2.0
and again in Vulcan. What you're seeing may be a low probability bug
in 1.0.3 - quite an old release at this point.
