+ *  sbrk.c
+ *
+ *  Author: Till Straumann <strauman@slac.stanford.edu>, 2002
+ *
+ *  Hack around the 32bit powerpc 32M problem:
+ *
+ *  GCC by default uses relative branches which can not jump
+ *  farther than 32M. Hence all program text is confined to
+ *  a single 32M segment.
+ *  This hack gives the RTEMS malloc region all memory below
+ *  32M at startup. Only when this region is exhausted will sbrk
+ *  add more memory. Loading modules may fail at that point, hence
+ *  the user is expected to load all modules at startup _prior_
+ *  to malloc()ing lots of memory...
+ *
+ *  NOTE: it would probably be better to have a separate region
+ *        for module code.
