Note that at least some of those hangs are due to pre-existing
out-of-bounds memory access bugs which happen not to cause any serious
problems without virtual address space. Enabling it can help pinpoint
those bugs using the virtual memory protection fault address.
I agree it's probably still better to disable it by default at this
point though.
