That link isn't particularly illuminating for someone not well versed in
the art of prelink.  I assume the significant thing is that the default
MAXPAGESIZE has changed for arm, but it's not entirely obvious why this
matters to prelink, what problem it caused, or what the change in
prelink is that fixes the problem.  Can you elaborate?

thanks
