old binary works not with 2.2.18 (fwd)

Hi,

I have an old 4GL application (from SCO3.2v4) that is a neat database
tool. Under 2.2.17 with iBCS this works well:

schoen3:~ # file /usr/SCULPTOR/bin/sage
/usr/SCULPTOR/bin/sage: Microsoft a.out separate pure segmented
word-swapped V2.3 V3.0 386 small model executable

I did some checking with tracing on with iBCS:

The "same" ibcs source tree on 2.2.17 gives with this application:

Dec 27 23:22:46 renske1 kernel: iBCS: socksys registered on character major 30
Dec 27 23:22:48 renske1 kernel: iBCS: trace code set to 0x100

Dec 27 23:22:58 renske1 kernel: XOUT: binfmt_xout: result = 0

With 2.2.18 (and 2.2.19p3) I get:

Dec 27 23:27:32 schoen3 kernel: iBCS: trace code set to 0x100
Dec 27 23:27:41 schoen3 kernel: XOUT: binfmt_xout entry: /usr/SCULPTOR/bin/sage

Dec 27 23:27:41 schoen3 kernel: XOUT: loader forces seg fault (status=-22)
Dec 27 23:27:41 schoen3 kernel: XOUT: binfmt_xout: result = 0
Dec 27 23:27:49 schoen3 kernel: XOUT: binfmt_xout entry: /usr/bin/less

Note how the m-mapping for the data segment fails with 2.2.18
