    kboot: use 128MB for the heap area, ZFS needs a lot of memory
    
    ZFS uses a lot of memory. The old minimal allocations won't work when
    ZFS support is added. Most environments this will be used (or will
    liekly be used) have >> 256MB, 128MB should be safe everywhere and allow
    examination of a fair number of ZFS pools to boot from.
