[PATCH] Allow the kernel to start earlier than VM_MAX_ADDRESS

VM_MAX_ADDRESS shouldn't be hardcoded in libc, the kernel should be able to
decide about it dynamically. This fixes glibc into supporting that. It's however
a bit hackish.

This kludge will however go out once we have a recent enough gnumach,
anyway.
