--- Comment #25 from Michael Catanzaro <mcatanzaro at gnome.org> ---
Well that wasn't what I was expecting to see... you've simply run out of memory. Normally this means you've messed with your overcommit settings, which will cause fork() to fail. 255325 at main will "fix" this by switching back to posix_spawn(), but the problem could recur in the future if we switch back to using fork() again.

Note your problem is totally different from what other users of lightdm-webkit2-greeter were complaining about, but I will close this anyway because I suspect the same commit will "fix" the invalid file descriptor issue as well. Same warning applies, though: lightdm-webkit2-greeter should find a different way to do its IPC if it wants to be robust to future process launching changes.
