Use VirtualAlloc() more flexibly when using it to mimic UNIX's sbrk().
CC: perl-win32-porters@listserv.ActiveState.com Message-ID: <40F6B295.8010804@uk.radan.com> Assumes perl's malloc can now handle non-contiguous memory (believed to be true). Does not address threading issues. "The attached patch (against blead) makes sbrk() initially try to extend the existing block of memory exactly as it currently does, but to not fail immediately if it can't -- it now frees up that part of whatever it had previously reserved+committed which hadn't actually been used yet, resets all its static variables and basically starts anew." p4raw-id: //depot/perl@23128
