Comment (by bonefish):

 Replying to [comment:4 hamish]:
 > Using `B_BASE_ADDRESS` does indeed fix the issue. Though it would be
 nice to search lower addresses for a free region too. What about if I
 added a `B_NEAREST_ADDRESS`?

 I'm not really sure I see when/why one would want to use that feature.
 `B_BASE_ADDRESS` is useful for managing the address space (so would be a
 `B_TOP_ADDRESS` which would search backwards), but I fail to imaging a use
 for `B_NEAREST_ADDRESS`. It would basically mean that some address has
 ideal properties and the farther away an address the worse its properties
 get.
