Add option to use guard pages
Add new --enable-allocator-guard-pages configure option which works like --enable-allocator-uses-mmap, but will also add inaccessible guard pages before and after each memnode. This will result in higher ressource usage but allow to find/protect against certain buffer overflow/overread bugs. git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/apr/apr/trunk@1593615 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68

Changes for APR 2.0.0
+ *) Add new --enable-allocator-guard-pages which is like allocator-uses-mmap,
+ but will also add inaccessible guard pages before and after each memnode.
+ This will result in higher ressource usage but allow to find/protect
+ against certain buffer overflow/overread bugs. [Stefan Fritsch]
+
*) Add new --enable-pool-concurrency-check configure option to detect
thread-unsafe concurrent accesses to pools. Runtime costs should be
relatively low. [Stefan Fritsch]
