On my PC (with espresso-3.2.3) it  seems to work
and I attach here the output file with few calculated points. 
May be the problem is in the insufficient memory...
I have also changed ewind (1.0) and epsproj (1.d-5).
Before (on my opinion) epsproj was too small (1.d-9).
which did not allow to get advantage from decreasing 
the 2D plane wave basis set. 
Usually it should be from 1.d-5 to 1.d-7.
So my input for pwcond is:

&inputcond
  outdir = '/home/smogunov/tmp/'
  prefixl = 'al_lead'
  band_file = 'bands_al_lead91'
  ikind = 0
  energy0 = 8.d0
  denergy = -0.4d0
  ewind = 1.0
  epsproj = 1.d-5
  delgep = 1.d-10
  cutplot = 3.d0
/
  1
  0.0 0.0 1.0
  40

Hope this helps,
regards, 
Alexander
