Address issues brought up by MvL on python-checkins.

I tested this with valgrind on amd64.

The man pages I found for diff architectures are inconsistent on this.
I'm not entirely sure this change is correct for all architectures either.

Perhaps we should just over-allocate and not worry about it?
