Yeah, that's a problem alright.  The easiest thing to do is to treat an
out of memory error like an IOException and destroy the whole connection
immediately.  This isn't terribly friendly though and the vast majority
of the errors are going to come from ReceiveTupleV3, so we could put some
checks in that path that could get the protocol back into a known state.
Adding checks around every allocation isn't going to be worth the effort.
