Some mmap restrictions recently went into the kernel to help mitigate null-pointer deref bugs and other classes of exploits.

Running sudo sh -c 'echo 4096 > /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr' should allow cryopid to get past this stumbling block.

Alternately, the resumer code should be put at a higher address. Ubuntu ships with a default mmap_min_addr of 64K (0x10000). It shouldn't hurt to put the resumer there instead.
