I'm trying to typeset a 75 page document using the hyperref package, 
and I'm getting this error message:

! TeX capacity exceeded, sorry [input stack size=5000].

Is the hyperref package a stack hog? Is this normal on a 
less-than-book-size 75 page document? How can the stack size be 
increased?

The log file says:

If you really absolutely need more capacity,
you can ask a wizard to enlarge me.


Here is how much of TeX's memory you used:

This is the list of packages I'm using:
