[SOLVED] systemd-gpt-auto-generator[196]: Out of memory

After the last set of updates, I've started recieving the following messages every time I boot up (retrieved with dmesg):

claire ~ % dmesg | grep gpt
[   21.307150] systemd-gpt-auto-generator[196]: Out of memory.
[   21.307433] systemd[193]: /usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-gpt-auto-generator failed with error code 1.

Here is the last set of updatses according to pacman.log:

Whilst this problem doesn't affect me (I don't use GPT), I'm wondering whether anyone else has it.

This was mentioned on the systemd-devel mailing list.  I believe there should be a fix in the git branch.
