If the system malloc always returns a 16-byte aligned address (I'm not
sure if that is the case for *BSDs), and if we actually only need
8-byte alignment for memory allocated before dumping, then we can
determine whether the address has been allocated before dumping or not
by tweaking the address returned by malloc before dumping so it always
returns a value p such that (p & 8) == 8. Actually this is how
unexec_malloc etc. in unexmacosx.c work.
