  I just recently installed a new 7206VXR/NPE-G2 router, and looking at the
logging output I am seeing the following:

 I tried to look this up on Cisco's site using their error and output
decoders, but it returns that the %SYS-4-CHUNKMALLOCFAIL is not known.  So
figured I would toss it out on the list and see if it's anything I need to be
worried about.  I am running IOS 12.4(15)T1...
