    	* app/main.c: when glibc is used, call mallopt, so that memory
    	chunks >= 4k (= 64*64 pixels, 1bpp - the smallest full tile)
    	get allocated via mmap. This ensures that after closing an image
    	the memory allocated for image data gets returned to the system.
    
    	Thanks to Phil Blundell <pb@nexus.co.uk> for bringing mallopt
    	to my attention.
    
    	Please watch closely for performance problems.
