There isn't much you can do about this. The disk is full, something goes wrong.
too bad.

[Darin Fisher]

but, perhaps it is wrong that we are hitting an assertion.  the code should
gracefully handle low disk space conditions without throwing asserts, since are
supposed to only indicate programming errors.

valid bug, but -> wontfix since we're now using the storage backend in cookies (and i doubt this is worth fixing on branch)
