Your 2.7.6 build doesn't throw the error. By the way, there is a 2.7.7 release.
Yes the problem stems from vsize reporting back as 0 from GetAllocationInfo. The newer releases use the default vsize and only try to do GetAllocationInfo if needed/supported. I had thought that the master 2.7.6 build had been propagated to el6, but apparently that didn't complete successfully. Since the 2.7.7 release is out, I'll add that to both master and el6 to resolve this.
