Pushed, thanks!

I adjusted the FAILSAFE_EVERY_PAGES comments, which now point out that
FAILSAFE_EVERY_PAGES is a power-of-two. The implication is that the
compiler is all but guaranteed to be able to reduce the modulo
division into a shift in the lazy_scan_heap loop, at the point of the
failsafe check. I doubt that it would really matter if the compiler
had to generate a DIV instruction, but it seems like a good idea to
avoid it on general principle, at least in performance sensitive code.
