Comment(by Wim):

 The problem with this patch is that there is no rounding error, the
 original calculation is correct (although it should use B_PAGE_SIZE to
 make it independent of the actual page size).

 It seems that the system just reports 1MB less memory than what is
 physically available. You can open a terminal and type "ps -i" to confirm
 this.
