When I run this on my 2.4.17rc2aa2 kernel with a Voodoo3000
framebuffer, the process hangs forever in D state. ps and top will
then hang the same way when they read the /proc/pid files for the
hung process. And my root filesystem won't unmount.
It only happens when PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE is specified - when I use
only PROT_WRITE, the program segfaults like you'd expect.... but
once the PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE version has hung, PROT_WRITE-only
versions will also hang.
