This one is easy.  Has nothing to do with memory or swap space.
errno 134 is: Stale NFS file handle.  You are almost certainly running
the program over NFS, and the server has re-exported the filesystem 
differently.  Talk to the system admin of the server.
I also seem to recall that you can get ESTALE if the file was unlinked
on the server (which might happen if somebody was remaking the program,
depending on the makefile).

No, cvd can't trap this (although it can catch the exit or the signal).
I'd be astounded if this was caused by a programming error on your
part.
