work around incorrect EPERM from mmap syscall
under some conditions, the mmap syscall wrongly fails with EPERM instead of ENOMEM when memory is exhausted; this is probably the result of the kernel trying to fit the allocation somewhere that crosses into the kernel range or below mmap_min_addr. in any case it's a conformance bug, so work around it. for now, only handle the case of anonymous mappings with no requested address; in other cases EPERM may be a legitimate error. this indirectly fixes the possibility of malloc failing with the wrong errno value.

musl libc musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain. The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and glibc functionality. For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file. Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on the project website: http://www.musl-libc.org/
