Re: dpkg: consumes all available RAM and crashes, during configure phase
I too see dpkg hang in the configure phase and consuming all the memory it can get. strace didn't yield anything useful apart from repeated brk() calls. C. -- ,''`.

In these situations, something like gdb would probably more helpful than strace. (At least to learn in which area it's currently spinning, which might give you some clue.)
