Yes, I think you are right. I changed the short name (abbreviation=
file name?) of my Aldor category from upper case to lower case and
now it **sometimes** works. See:

http://wiki.axiom-developer.org/SandBoxCategoryOfGraphs

But often when I try to save this page I get:

    >> System error:
    Contiguous blocks exhausted.
  Currently, 1354 pages are allocated.
  Use ALLOCATE-CONTIGUOUS-PAGES to expand the space.

And Axiom aborts near completion.

The problem seems to be intermittent. About 1 time out of 5 when
I save the page it succeeds as you see it above.  Odd that I
don't get the same result each time since it starts a new Axiom
session each time! This seems like it might be some interaction
between Axiom's requirements and GCL's memory allocation. Yuck.
