** Summary changed:

- dosemu segfaults on startup
+ default mmap_min_addr breaks userland

** Description changed:

+ Default value of mmap_min_addr is set to 64kb, which breaks many
+ different userland applications, including dosemu, wine and hardware
+ virtualisation.
+ 
+ Should be set to zero, as recommended by LKML when feature was
+ introduced.
+ 
+ As originally reported by pivo:
+ 
+ """
  When I start dosemu, I get the following, only:
  
  $ dosemu
  LOWRAM mmap: Invalid argument
  Segmentation fault (core dumped)
  
- I use latest hardy on 3 different machines (both ix32 and amd64), tried
- the console as well as X11, with the same result. The last time I'm
- certain it worked was 2008-03-26. Some dependency must have borked
- dosemu. Google didn't help.
