Process 5022 detached The difference seems to be whether the call to mmap2 after the call to set_thread_area succeeds. It seems that glibc is trying to allocate almost 2G of memory in order to print into a 256-byte buffer, and there is not enough address space for the allocation. (My laptop kernel (custom 2.6.16) config sets CONFIG_NOHIGHMEM=y and CONFIG_VMSPLIT_3G=y, whereas my desktop kernel (another custom 2.6.16) sets CONFIG_HIGHMEM4G=y and CONFIG_VMSPLIT_3G=y.)
