+   target of a branch is more than 4GB away from the branch.  Add the
+   Prefer_MAP_32BIT_EXEC bit so that mmap will try to map executable
+   pages with MAP_32BIT first.  NB: MAP_32BIT will map to lower 2GB,
+   not lower 4GB, address.  Prefer_MAP_32BIT_EXEC reduces bits available
+   for address space layout randomization (ASLR).  Prefer_MAP_32BIT_EXEC
+   is always disabled for SUID programs and can be enabled by setting
+   environment variable, LD_PREFER_MAP_32BIT_EXEC.  */
