Resolved upstream, to be included as a patch in 7.2.0-2

commit 53ea7a2ce3643daba6db4aa67de5947a5e393281
Author: Matthew Farrellee <matt>

    Fixed default RequestMemory = ImageSize -> ceiling(ImageSize/1024.0)
    
    The RequestMemory units are MiB, it is compared directly to a slot's
    Memory attribute which is MiB. The ImageSize is in KiB. The old code
    was broken such that a 22KiB ImageSize would use up 22MiB on a
    slot. Not so bad, but if the ImageSize (calculate initially from
    executable size) were say 20MiB it would mean a request for 20GiB of
    slot Memory -> failure.
