The binary is otherwise correct, so remove the incorrect check.

I was honestly hoping to leave this to some poor sole in the future.
But the irony of this check, after all the argument it caused, breaking the
very case it was trying to enforce, speaks volumes.
I appreciate you dislike this check. But I think the fact it gets triggered proved its effectiveness rather than the other way around.
From a brief look online, the define is meant to be present with medany. So I think some digging would be worth here as this may indicate another latent issue either on the command line or the compiler.
(I would like to point out that Linux has the exact same check. So why would it work there but not in Xen?)
Cheers,
