I think that it is more likely that there is not not enough memory to
start the wget subprocess.  Prior to calling the system function, in
another window run the strace command on the isis process:

  (other window)
  unix% strace -p <isis-pid> -o /tmp/isis.log

Then source the script, and assuming you see the -1 return value press
^C in the strace window to kill the strace process.  Then post the
contents of /tmp/isis.log file.

Thanks,
