Anyone interested in reviewing this patch?  It's not an urgent
issue, but as memory sizes get larger, someone might trip
over the problem.

FWIW, these changes conflict with some of Aditya Nagesh's
whitespace cleanup in patch [1].  I'll respin this one to
sync with those changes if Aditya's patch goes in first.
