One question, which I'm too lazy to read the source to answer: what
does an old (pre-MADV_DONTFORK) kernel do with an application that
tries to set MADV_DONTFORK?

I'm wondering what portable applications will have to do to handle the
case of a new application running on an old kernel.

Thanks,
Roland
