No, the assert happens using the DS segment. Hmm, I guess something
more is wrong here. It looks like the segment isn't protecting us here
and the segmentation fault just happens because of there is nothing
mapped at 0xc0000000 and it gets a page fault. If the segment would
protect us we should get a general protection exception, right?
