I need to introduce a compile time conditional to better facilitate Solaris, in particular the macro ADDRESS_SPACE_LIMIT in virtual.c.
I understand HAVE_SOLARIS is frowned upon so can anyone suggest a more targetted alternative (Could use __sysv__ but who knows whether all SYSV implementations need to define ADDRESS_SPACE_LIMIT the same way !)
As has been discussed already, ADDRESS_SPACE_LIMIT is a Windows limitation, not a Linux one, so it must not be changed for Solaris. The right way is to somehow reserve the area above ADDRESS_SPACE_LIMIT so that it's not used for normal allocations.
