This commit simply bumps up to 32MB and 1GB the random offset
of brk, compared to 8MB and 256MB, for 32bit and 64bit respectively.

   Why not make these 'rnd &= SZ_* - 1', while at it anyways?


You're right, I could have. Again, this code gets removed afterwards, so I think it's ok
to leave it as is.

Anyway, thanks for your remarks Sergei !
