---------------------------+------------------------------
On 32-bit Haiku, the ASLR implementation randomizes too much, and winds up
fragmenting the address space to the point where after 1/4 (~500MB) of it
is used, area creation can begin failing.
For now (hrev53143) I've disabled ASLR for malloc; this makes the system
much more stable (and wastes less memory too, it appears.)
