Well, what is sure is that not all of 1500000-1600000 was used before 
relocation either (it ends around 1546000), so 1600000 was not accessed 
before reloc. How can you be sure the issue happens after reloc? For all 
we know, it could be a bug in the code code that writes 1500000 to 
1600000 itself.

Amicalement,
