Possible OzTeX 1.41 bug?

I am getting system error #28 when I preview a dvi file with embedded
EPS file. In fact I cannot even preview page 3 of nasty.dvi which comes
with OzTeX 1.41. System error #28 means "stack has moved into application
heap". Here is the message that MacsBug 6.2.2 caught:
	system error #28 at 00401B46 _DeQueue+0156
Moreover after OzTeX 1.41 quits due to the error, the mouse freezes.

I retry with all the cdevs, inits disabled and I increase the memory size
of OzTeX 1.41 to 2MB but it quits with the same error message when I try
to preview a page with embedded EPS file.

My Macintosh configuration is: Mac+, 4MB RAM, Ehman 45+ external hard drive,
System 7.0 without Tuneup

I have not tried with smaller memory size because I always customize 
OzTeX to use Large TeX. All my format files are rebuilt for Large TeX.

Does anyone has similar problem?
