Log:
Some linux apps, such as IBM's JDK 1.3, will attempt to mmap thread
stacks near the top of their address space. If their TOS is greater
than vm_maxsaddr, vm_map_growstack() will confuse the thread stack
with the process stack and deliver a SEGV if they attempt to grow the
thread stack past their current stacksize rlimit. To avoid this,
adjust vm_maxsaddr upwards to reflect the current stacksize rlimit
rather than the maximum possible stacksize. It would be better to
adjust the mmap'ed region, but some apps (again, IBM's JDK 1.3) do not
check mmap's return value..
This commit (in conjunction with setting MINSIGSTKSZ to 2048 &
rebuilding your kernel and modules) will get IBM's JDK 1.3 working
with FreeBSD at least well enough to run many of the example applets.
