On Debian 13 / Linux kernel 6.x, accessing recently-unmapped memory no longer reliably causes SIGSEGV as the address may be immediately reused. These death tests were testing OS behavior rather than our code. The underlying mmap/unmap correctness is already covered by the surrounding assertions in each test. Fixes #127
