 The Installer from the r36100 nightly gcc4 hybrid image does not enable
 virtual memory by default. When building a {{{haiku-image}}} from source,
 this is different.

 I think this should be looked into before Alpha 2 because with the default
 settings on a system with 1 GB RAM, at about 512 MB used the system starts
 doing funny stuff. Like Jam crashing during "Patience..." and the system
 offering to open the debugger but gdb unable to open and things hanging.
 Or jam failing with {{{vfork: Out of memory}}}.
