I'm not sure what addresses you're talking about ATM. The addresses in
the 0x4:00000000 - 0x6:00000000 range? These are the interesting ones.
The relocation to some random low address should only occur if there's
a collision in this range.
I'm not quite sure how to find out what happens, unless you stop the
process in reserve_space and inspect the memory layout with sysinternal's
vmmap tool:
