st: Bad error message for tabulate with exact option

[Fred Wolfe <fwolfe@arthritis-research.org>]

I apparently ran out of memory using tabulate, exact.

Stata reported:


r(910);

end of do-file
r(910);

The error message associated with 910 is:

        value too small;
        You attempted to change the size of memory, but specified
        values for memory, maximum observations, maximum width, or
        maximum variables that are too small.  Stata wants to
        allocate a minimum of 300K.

Unfortunately, the message appears to be wrong as I had allocated 800 mb of 
memory. So perhaps this error message should be changed?
