That is on i386, Christoph? If so, I'd suspect a 32 bit overflow
as 4290777088 = 0xFFC01000 and va_start/va_end are unsigned longs.
If we tried to map exactly 4MB the with va_start at 0xFFC01000 we'd
end up with va_end at 0x100001000 which would wrap to 0x1000 = 4096.
Nick - this one is probably yours ;)
Cheers,
Dave.
