Hi David ,
I added the missing bsd-related Events::log calls .
Additionally I added calls to
bool os::guard_memory(char* addr, size_t bytes)
and
bool os::unguard_memory(char* addr, size_t bytes)
on Windows .
Regarding the event log initialization - I think it is better to keep the init where it is for now , moving it in front of other inits just leads to asserts and crashes
so I think it is out of scope of the CR to redo the whole init process .
New webrev :

Best regards, Matthias
