This is not known to me at least. Unfortunately the logs don't show that 
fetchmail had memory issues. The kernel randomly starts killing processes 
(depending on your policy) if no memory can be allocated anymore.
Could you log the virtual memory usage of specifically fetchmail?
Also, it may be interesting to see what running fetchmail with valgrind on 
your end produces. Can you test that?

Kind regards
Nico
