I couldn't reproduce the failure on eberlin, but I have a patch that 
should work (skipping the test if the allocation fails), which I did 
successfully test on eberlin by making each allocation twice as large to 
force it to fail. I'll upload that later today; debdiff since 
libsoup3/3.2.3-0+deb12u1 attached.

Note that this is not (yet) worked around in unstable or trixie: I've 
queued it for the next upload to unstable, but it doesn't seem urgent 
until/unless we actually see this failure mode on one of the surviving 
32-bit architectures.

Indeed - the fact that I couldn't reproduce the failure on eberlin does 
at least imply that this code path *can* work.
