Amber's nmode does not currently reduce the space requirements based on the
belly specification; see lines 90-100 of $AMBERHOME/src/nmode/nmode.f.

I am not quite sure why you are getting segmentation faults. The allocation
statements (lines 104 and 107 of the above file) should exit cleanly with
a useful error message if enough space is not available. We need to figure
out why this doesn't happen.
