I don't know except that I'm sure it's incorrect. Maybe it's broken in
all 2.6 versions..? I use 2.4.

Anyway it's completely impossible to have zero dirty pages in a C
program. The absolute minimum is 1 for the stack, and in practice the
minimum for a conformant C library is 2 due to environment-handling
stuff.
