This seems to be problematic. I haven't done a build against the latest
tree yet, but I saw your bug report, that looks like the generic java
launcher changed, so that some parameters for upper/lower bounds get
passed wrongly to the garbage collector now. But doko reported he got a
good build against an earlier changeset, so maybe it is something
different. The mmap patch is definitely needed, but I am afraid that is
not enough.

Seems fine. With all the changes that went on this week it would be good
to get a full make check test results build on one or two
architectures/distros to compare against. I can do some this weekend.
