The proposed workaround (sudo sysctl -w vm.mmap_min_addr=0) worked for me.
A little investigation made me found this new entry in sysctl.conf:

# protect bottom 64k of memory from mmap to prevent NULL-dereference
# attacks against potential future kernel security vulnerabilities.
# (Added in kernel 2.6.23.)
vm.mmap_min_addr = 65536

I guess it is part of the problem...
