Does anybody know exactly what Solaris does?  Does it simply round the
address to some nearest boundary, or does it pick a completely random
address?  If it's just rounding we could allocate a larger area and
use the part that we wanted, but if the address is random this won't
work. And no, MAP_FIXED does not work since it will wipe out existing
mappings at this address.
