A misunderstanding on my part. I reduce by 1M for the "low 1MB"  problem.
I reduce by another 1MB because way back when I thought that the number
you passed to the kernel was "ordinal number of last Mbyte" not "size in
Mbytes". I think I've been told to fix it before and I have failed to fix
it, sorry. I will try to do this when I get back from vacation.
