Sorry, I should have indicated that the test app was purely used
to test out mapping regions and boundaries - not show off the original
issue. I found certain things about the boundaries on windows to be
peciluar.

When I looked up what getpagesize() and getsystempagesize() return,
respectively, I could have sworn that GPS returned page size and
GSPS returned allocation granularity (both via GetSytemInfo).
