66 Since no alignment guarantees are made about the initial value returned
67 by sbrk, test the initial value and (if necessary) sbrk enough additional
68 memory to start off with alignment to BLOCKSIZE. We actually only need
69 it aligned to an alignment suitable for any object, so this is overkill.
70 But at most it wastes just part of one BLOCKSIZE chunk of memory and
71 minimizes portability problems by avoiding us having to figure out
72 what the actual minimal alignment is. The rest of the malloc code
73 avoids this as well, by always aligning to the minimum of the requested
74 size rounded up to a power of two, or to BLOCKSIZE.
76 Note that we are going to use some memory starting at this initial sbrk
77 address for the sbrk region malloc descriptor, which is a struct, so the
78 base address must be suitably aligned. */
