Cut down MAXDSIZE from 3G to 2.5G otherwise bottomup allocation ends up
supplying an out of bounds hint for sigcode (c001e000 > bf000000). Makes
a.out binaries work again.

Will this make malloc fail 0.5GB earlier than before?  The data 
size limits on i386 are already annoyingly small, and I would 
prefer not to make them smaller.  Please could you find a way to 
penalise only a.out programs.
