Missing File getpagesize

Some of the various platforms still require the getpagesize.o file, yet it
has been removed from the Head and CVS/src/common directories.

See ray/makeall for further details eg: set compat="bmalloc.o erf.o
getpagesize.o"

I think that's just a case of makeall being out of sync with the
code. Getpagesize() was previously used only in common/malloc.c,
and both files have been retired together.

In other words, you can just remove all instances of malloc.o and
getpagesize.o from your copy of makeall, and everythging should
work fine (*don't* remove bmalloc.o, though). I don't normally
touch the old build system, so I'll leave it to greg to update
the master copy.

Hi Terry,

Schorsch is right (as usual). The module is no longer needed, and should have been removed from the makeall script. I have just done so, and tomorrow's HEAD should reflect this change.

Thanks for pointing out the error.
