Cool :)

Erf. I'm surprised that we get to pass -gdwarf-2 to xlc. Does it really
get recognized as a gcc compiler? It's really a pain if a compiler
which is not actually compatible with gcc does announce itself as being
gcc...

Ah, indeed, non-x86 architectures use pages bigger than 4096, so we need
to round it up for the o_direct Out-of-Core support. I have fixed it.

Yes, errorcheck/invalid_blocking_calls really is expected to fail: it
tests that we do error out on invalid blocking calls :)
