Now that explains is better. But then the requested HEAPBASE was not
free and hence topdown search got an address in the below range.

The new range allocated is such that there is no scope for expansion of
heap if we do a topdown search. But why should that require us to change
from topdown/bottomup search?

For the specific test, one should pass the HEAPBASE value such that it
can be expanded if required isn't it ?
