[vtkusers] memory allocation on HP-UX 11.00

Hello

I have an application based on VTK on HP-UX 11.00 compiled with 
gcc3.2.1. It works very well. But if i tried to allocate more than round 
about 500 MB memory in one block, my applications says that there is no 
more memory. The machine has at this time 1.5 GB free memory!.
So i wrote a little test program which tries to allocate more than 500 
MB memory in one call to malloc and it failed too.
So is there a compiler option (as on IBM AIX) or something like that to 
increase the size of memory which can be allocated in one malloc call?

Thanks, Alex
