8 Never mind, fixed it. For the record (in case someone has the same
9 problem and searches the list), there's a wrong assumption in
10 /usr/lib/oss/build/osscore.c:
11
12 if (memlimit < 0x00000000ffffffffLL)
13
14 this needs to be:
15
16 if (memlimit <= 0x00000000ffffffffLL)
17
18 Rebuild with install.sh (same directory) and it should work.
