An further update. Am now now having this problem when I run the make
file from the command line.

Not sure if it relevant: "I got the LZW compression is not available due to Unisys patent enforcement" error from Enblend.
Does this mean its using uncompressed files and running out of memory?

System info: C and E drive are partitions on the same physical disk. C has 1GB free, E has 600GB free.
source files are located on E: and destination file goes there too.
Scratch drive is G: (separate physical drive with 1300GB free).
Scratch is set correctly in makefile, hugin preferences, and system variables.
System has 8GB RAM supplemented by 2x4GB Readyboost devices.
OS is windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit
Hugin version 2010.4 64bit.

I got further through the stitch process using -m6500 parameter for enblend.
Doing the same for enfuse got me even further.

The project is a 3 Exposure HDR 360x180 spherical panorama stitched at
12000x6000 pixels.

Title:
  Enblend fails from Hugin, works from cmd line

Status in Hugin - Panorama Tools GUI:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  This bug has actually been reported a number of times, but closed out
  because people assumed it was simply a problem of not enough disk
  space. I have a case that proves this is not the case... and have
  added some information that will hopefully help diagnose the real
  problem.

  My bottom line: Enblend works from command prompt, not from Hugin, and
  I suspect the issue is that Hugin may not be properly setting
  environment variables before launching Enblend.

  ERROR SEEN (during stitching, when directly run by Hugin):
  enblend: info: loading next image: pLTRR0000.tif 1/1
  enblend: info: loading next image: pLTRR0001.tif 1/1

  enblend: an exception occured
  enblend: enblend: unable to create image swap file name.

  enblend: info: remove invalid output image "pLTRR.tif"
  make: *** [pLTRR.tif] Error 1

  HOWEVER: there is no error if the exact command listed in the Hugin
  window is run from command line!

  i.e., I copy the command, open a command prompt, go to the project folder....
           f:
           cd \photos\pLTRR

  ...and paste in the enblend command:
  "C:/apps/photo/Hugin/bin/enblend" --compression LZW -w -f12764x5389 -o "pLTRR.tif" "pLTRR0000.tif" "pLTRR0001.tif" "pLTRR0002.tif" "pLTRR0003.tif" "pLTRR0004.tif" "pLTRR0005.tif" "pLTRR0006.tif" "pLTRR0007.tif" "pLTRR0008.tif" "pLTRR0009.tif" "pLTRR0010.tif" "pLTRR0011.tif" "pLTRR0012.tif" "pLTRR0013.tif" "pLTRR0014.tif" "pLTRR0015.tif" "pLTRR0016.tif" "pLTRR0017.tif" "pLTRR0018.tif" "pLTRR0019.tif" "pLTRR0020.tif" "pLTRR0021.tif" "pLTRR0022.tif" "pLTRR0023.tif" "pLTRR0024.tif" "pLTRR0025.tif" "pLTRR0026.tif" "pLTRR0027.tif" "pLTRR0028.tif" "pLTRR0029.tif" "pLTRR0030.tif" "pLTRR0031.tif" "pLTRR0032.tif" "pLTRR0033.tif" "pLTRR0034.tif" "pLTRR0035.tif" "pLTRR0036.tif" "pLTRR0037.tif" "pLTRR0038.tif" "pLTRR0039.tif" "pLTRR0040.tif" "pLTRR0041.tif" "pLTRR0042.tif" 

  ENVIRONMENT
  WinXP SP3, Hugin 2010.1.0.5161 built by Zoran
  C: drive does NOT have enough space
  F: drive has plenty of space (30+GB free)
  Project is on F:; 
  TMP and TEMP vars point to f:\temp\WinTmp
  Hugin temp setting points to f:\temp\HuginTmp

  SI FILEMON MONITOR LOG shows...
  From the command prompt, Enblend uses F:\temp\WinTmp as it should.
  From within Hugin, Enblend dies without attempting to create a temp file at all!

  THE BIG QUESTION
  What is different between calling Enblend from the command prompt vs from Hugin?

  My strong suspicion: Hugin improperly sets environment variables
  before launching Enblend
