This is an interesting error - since the number is quite small (a bit less
than 17 MB), GIMP seems to actually be running out of memory.

Is your Windows 32 or 64-bit? How big is the image you're working on (both
it's dimensions, and the number of layers it has are important)? And, how
much memory and swap does the machine have?
