Maybe.  What is a "VIA Epia system"?

Frankly, I'm afraid that your patch is likely to break way more systems
than it fixes.  What is getpagesizes(), and is it guaranteed to exist on
*every* Solaris system?  What the heck correlation does its result have
to whether SHM_SHARE_MMU will work?

            regards, tom lane
