This patch for a Solaris-specific problem but is a good safety precaution,
|
so although it is not suitable for upstream as-is, we might offer it in a
|
slightly tweaked form at some point in the future.
|
|
Note that this can also have wrong impact on other tests (e.g., imap which
|
tries to allocate huge chunks of virtual memory).
