I was under the impression that that link flag can cause problems for 32
bit systems, but maybe we don't care? For instance see this
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5185406/how-does-the-large-address-aware-flag-work-for-32-bit-applications-on-64-bit-com.
Why is it a problem for you to run editbin on the exe? You need a compiler
to translate anyway, right? Or are you running out of memory in regular
usage of pypy? Too many questions, I'll stop here.
