Ah, sorry for my misunderstanding.

No, 0x10ffff is right from this point of view as well: the DPMI spec
requires that the size be an integral multiple of 4KB, i.e. the size
must be 0x110000, not 0x10fff0.

If I'm not mistaken, we actually tried the size you suggest (or some
variation of it) during the beta testing of v2.02 (or was it v2.03?),
and the programs built that way crashed on some platform (Windows?).
