Looks like Peter incorporated a slightly modified version of my patch
into mkinitrd-4.2.16. I've been working with it today and that version
of nash seems to work, but it's tough to tell whether it's actually
cleaning things up or not.

Is there some way to tell whether it's actually cleaning things up?
Where would this memory allocation show up under /proc/meminfo? Perhaps
I can roll a large initramfs image, and see if there is a difference
with and without this nash patch in how memory is allocated...
