*SIGH* So much for the claim that there actually existed a sane way to 
get the page size across platforms.  This is particularly nasty because 
of the definition of mmap2().

The kernel headers don't work very well since page size is a 
kernel-compile-time option on some platforms, e.g. MIPS, and dynamic on 
some platforms.
