Sorry, I'm lost.  As I understand it, the
executable in a traditional Unix-like system has
storage laid out in this order:

  text (programs and read-only data)
  data (read-write initialized static data)
  bss (read-write zeroed static data)
  everything else

Valgrind has some control over the layout in
"everything else", but it can't affect the addresses
in text, data, and bss.  my_edata lives in "data",
so how can valgrind affect whether a pointer compares
less than my_edata?
