Do not allocate a block of memory in Pooling_Allocator::init(); this was

causing allocators that were never used to allocate (and thus, later
deallocate) memory. This was causing a noticable slowdown when the mmap
based allocator was in used (based on the strace output, this was mostly
due to the calls to msync).
