Not 100% sure if it could help. Try to grep my test code here
http://linuxdevcenter.com/pub/a/linux/2006/11/30/linux-out-of-memory.html
and insert the related memory compaction call inside it (during the
sequence of free and malloc).

And then, by both checking /proc/meminfo and /proc/buddyinfo, I think
you could pick the conclusion...
