For some reason, on 32-bit x86 the mmap_start address is very close to the
beginning of the stack. Because of this, benchmarks like gzip that
allocate 64MB using mmap fail (while giving a soewhat obscure "memory
already mapped" pagetable error).
This patch arbitrarily moves the value down some, the value picked
probably isn't a good one.
