Modified Files:
basesrc/lib/libc/arch/i386/sys: brk.S
Log Message:
I have no idea why this syscall wrapper does some very un-unix-like
argument prefrobbing, in particular, it computes max(addr, __minbrk)
and uses that. The code is like this even in the ancient libc/i386 tree,
back to the earliest rev 1.2. I did not see it Lite 1, but I'm not totally
sure what the random site I found was serving up.
*
* However, I do know that it should use jb and not jl.
