Greetings! Recently, some change has been introduced into the 32bit arm kernels (apparently) which is blocking maxima and axiom, and perhaps others. These programs rely on mprotecting various pages read-only to accelerate garbage collection, an algorithm which has worked on arm for many years. Now, after a relatively few calls, mprotect returns ENOMEM, indicating (perhaps) that the kernel table size for this information has been decreased. When run under gdb, the calls succeed, which is a mystery to me.
In any case, I can turn this algorithm off if this is likely to be a permanent condition on these machines. If this is rather a bug, please let me know if I can assist in fixing it.
