    OK, then, I'll prepare the patch.

    I've seen four or five, without a detailed examination. Anyway,
since it would be a dangerous change (being in the MM code), I'll
count ocurrences and problems. There is no intrinsic problem in using
PAGE_ALIGN on a size if we know that size is small enough.

    Thanks for all, Dave :)
