Depending on what your program does, there might be another strategy. If 
it is doing a complicated computation, lets say an FEM solver, then you 
can run the computational kernel in another process. The GUI process 
would communicate using stdio or TCP/IP with the computation to show 
progress and so on. When the computation process runs aout of memory, it 
is simply killed by the OS, which does not hurt because its resources 
like files, memory, network connections are then freed automatically by 
the OS. The GUI would just notice that the process is killed and inform 
the user, write log files and so on.
