#3633: Heap size suggestion of > 2145 MB gets ignored

 Hello,

 If I run a GHC-compiled program with:

 {{{+RTS -H2150M -RTS}}}

 or any value greater than 2150 MB, the heap size suggestion apparently
 gets ignored.

 If there is a limit on how big the heap size suggestion can be, at least I
 should get an error message. My machine has 4 GB of RAM and I'm eager to
 use it :-)

Comment:

 I'm not sure if a single process will be able to use more than 2G RAM, but
 either way I don't think we should be silently ignoring the flag.

 Fixed, along with a class of similar bugs:
