Alas, I think this would break things if QEMU were started with
exactly 2M of ram.

Maybe an alternative would be to increase it to 512K of ram.

Another possibility might be to check if there is at least 16M of ram
and set aside 4M in that case (and continue to use 256K for low-mem
machines).

Cheers,
