  *) Complain with a fatal error message when MM_SHM_MAXSEGSIZE
     couldn't be determined.
  *) Updated config.guess/config.sub

     they were opened write-only, but at least fcntl()

 Changes between 1.0.5 and 1.0.6 (02-Jun-1999 to 06-Jun-1999)

     was reused and forgot to lock/unlock the data structures.
  *) Fixed internal best-fit algorithm for finding a free memory chunk: 
     - things got inserted out of order in the list
     - when chunk is found which matches size exactly it stops immediately
     - lowered chunk splitting threshold to MIN(2*size,128)
