There's something of a missed opportunity there, as a correctly programmed 
mmap() / MMU handler can do wonders for avoiding heap fragmentation - you can 
map several non-contiguous physical addresses to contiguous virtual 
addresses, providing application layer code with what looks like a single 
large block of memory.

Laters,
Craig.
