Also I don't get the mmap stuff if I call fixdep directly (the way I
think it is called staring at the build system) -- it still dies with
an bus error:

=======

cmd_scripts/basic/fixdep := gcc -Wp,-MD,scripts/basic/.fixdep.d -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -o scripts/basic/fixdep scripts/basic/fixdep.c

$(wildcard include/config/foo.h) \
$(wildcard include/config/boom.h) \
zsh: bus error scripts/basic/fixdep scripts/basic/.fixdep.d scripts/basic/fixdep

gdb isn't of any use for that unfortunately
