Makeglossaries breaks down perl

Makeglossaries breaks down perl

Sometimes - I can't reproduce it until know but today, I can't get rid of
it - makeglossaries breaks down here. The problem seems to be perl.exe. I
hope this belongs here. If not, I will migrate to another StackExchange.
I've got a Win XP 64bit SP2 system. I have got Strawberry perl installed
but when running makeglossaries, it uses some perl.exe situated in my Git
folder (D:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\perl.exe). The PATH to
D:\Strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exe is set before the Git path.
Running makeglossaries will return the following output which keeps
printing until I force the terminal to quit.
makeglossaries version 2.07 (2013-06-17)
added glossary type 'main' (glg,gls,glo)
added glossary type 'acronym' (alg,acr,acn)
makeindex -s "main.ist" -t "main.glg" -o "main.gls" "main.glo"
D:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\perl.exe: *** fork: can't reserve memory
for stack 0x410000 - 0x610000, Win32 error 0
0 [main] perl.exe" 5496 sync_with_child: child 8144(0x300) died before
initialization with status code 0x1
91 [main] perl.exe" 5496 sync_with_child: *** child state watingin for lonjmp
...
The number before [main] is increasing and the child is getting other
names, the rest is repeating infinitely. Anybody knows, what is happening
here?
makeindex alone works like it should.
