fit regions are available, use the delayed regions in LIFO order, in order
to increase locality of reference. We might expect this to cause delayed
regions to be removed from the delay ring buffer more often (since we're
now re-using more recently buffered regions), but numerous tests indicate
that the overall impact on memory usage tends to be good (reduced
fragmentation).
Re-work arena_frag_reg_alloc() so that when large free regions are
exhausted, it uses small regions in a way that favors contiguous allocation
of sequentially allocated small regions. Use arena_frag_reg_alloc() in
this capacity, rather than directly attempting over-fitting of small
requests when no large regions are available.
Remove the bin overfit statistic, since it is no longer relevant due to
the arena_frag_reg_alloc() changes.
Do not specify arena_frag_reg_alloc() as an inline function. It is too
large to benefit much from being inlined, and it is also called in two
places, only one of which is in the critical path (the other call bloated
arena_reg_alloc()).
Call arena_coalesce() for a region before caching it with
arena_mru_cache().
Add assertions that detect the attempted caching of adjacent free regions,
so that we notice this problem when it is first created, rather than in
arena_coalesce(), when it's too late to know how the problem arose.

initialization overhead, there's a problem in that we never call
imalloc() and thus malloc_init() for zero-sized allocations. As a
result, malloc(0) returns NULL when it's the first or only malloc in
the program. Any non-zero allocation will initialize the malloc code
with the side-effect that subsequent zero-sized allocations return a
non-NULL pointer. This is because the pointer we return for zero-
sized allocations is calculated from malloc_pageshift, which needs
to be initialized at runtime on ia64.
The result of the inconsistent behaviour described above is that
configure scripts failed the test for a GNU compatible malloc. This
resulted in a lot of broken ports.
Other, even simpler, solutions were possible as well:
1. initialize malloc_pageshift with some non-zero value (say 13 for
8KB pages) and keep the runtime adjustment.
2. Stop using malloc_pageshift to calculate ZEROSIZEPTR.
Removal of the runtime adjustment was chosen because then ia64 is the
same as any other platform. It is not to say that using a page size
obtained at runtime is bad per se. It's that there's currently a high
level of gratuity for its existence and the moment it causes problems
is the moment you need to get rid of it. Hence, it's not unthinkable
that this commit is (partially) reverted some time in the future when
we do have a good reason for it and a good way to achieve it.

(libthr, libpthread) can now have threads running while another
