couldn't reserve space for cygwin's heap

     I'm getting the error message "Couldn't reserve space for Cygwin's heap
(0x109E0000) in child, cygheap,Win32 error 8" while trying to run a fortran
program that requires about 300 Mb of memory on a Windows 98 machine that
has 64 Mb of physical memory.  Can this be done?  If not, what is the
minimum memory I would need, and which version of Windows? I am assuming the
use of virtual memory.
      The program compiles under cygwin/g77 and runs fine on small problems,
but fails when I increase the array size to accomodate large problems.
