[RFA] Declare getpagesize as int

[Jeff Johnston]

I don't think this is a problem.  They won't get used.  For regular
mallocr.c, malloc_getpagesize is defined by that point so the BSD stuff 
doesn't get used under #ifdnef malloc_getpagesize.  For the linux 
version, the sysconf check will pass and will be used.
