Thanks, now I can stop commenting out some (IIRC primarily uffd-related) 
tests when just wanting to run some specific tests on some of odd

I assume this round you only consideres 64bit builds, right? My last 
attempts with 32bit revealed a lot of issues, and I only fixed what I 
really wanted to test (COW).
