Datasize has very little meaning in -current. There is an address space
limit (RLIMIT_AS) instead (the 'vmemory' value in ulimit).

For me the fix stops malloc() or mmap() from returning invalid pointers
when a process runs out of address space. The address space for this
is limited to about 64MB because then it collides with the stack that
grows down from 128MB. Apparently the address space above isn't used.
