Comment 4 for bug 861296

That one is much more fun; running under gdb it fails at:

2031Mb allocated using slize size = 5*406Mb OK
2031Mb allocated using slize size = 4*507Mb OK
Couldn't allocate the heap: 2031Mb
slize size = 677Mb slize no= 2/3

I added debug to print the pointers:

Slize 2 @ 0xffffffff
Slize 1 @ 0x6a613000
Slize 0 @ 0x40113000

and /proc/.../maps looks like:

ulimit -a shows:
virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited

and max memory size is also:
max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited

What's happening here is that the 3rd map would run into the stack, and it's not using the heap space below the libraries,
but instead it's failing.

Here it's the same - we're running out of space at the top, and not using the space below 4......

(Are we supposed to?)
