Re: [MIT-Scheme-devel] Installing on OpenBSD from portable C

You could try changing the heap allocator to use malloc instead of mmap. On a 64-bit architecture that should work fine.

W^X violation would make sense -- nobody has taught MIT Scheme to cope
with W^X, and it would likely be a nontrivial task.  I don't know how
you can work around that in OpenBSD -- maybe wxallowed doesn't apply
to new anonymous mmappings.
