Fix sbrk in PIE binaries
In PIE mode, the program gets loaded at very low address, and thus _end is very low, just before libraries, and thus initializing the brk to it does not make sense, since there is no room left there. Hardcode the brk to 0x800000 for now as a workaround.

-This need not strictly be a TopGit branch, but it is for easy synchronization
-between different machines.
-
-As the baseline is merged into the topic branches, it is forward-only.
-
-To advance it:
-
- $ echo [SHA1] > .topdeps
- $ git commit -m Advance. -- .topdeps
- $ tg update
-
