Tell users about out-of-memory errors

Aborting without an error message when memory is short
is not helpful, so print the reason for the abort.

Try
	qemu -m 1000000
or
	qemu -m 2000 (win32)

to force an out-of-memory error.

v2:
* Fix error message for win32.
* Fix error message for posix_memalign.

Thanks to malc for the hints.
