It is not a minute, one-off change.
I don't know how to fix it to cope with tiny virtual address spaces
like those in 9vx. It's not something I anticipated when I wrote the
allocator, and it's not something I really want to spend time on
for such a tiny fraction of use cases. We have limited time.
We don't even support OS X 10.5 anymore.

I'm not sure apple support OS X 10.5 anymore either? I think that's why the OS updates are so inexpensive :-) (what was it like 40 bucks to go from 10.5 to 10.6?)

The best answer might be to make USTKTOP 1GB.
