syscall: allocate 64 bits of "basep" for Getdirentries

Recent crashes on 386 Darwin appear to be caused by this system call
smashing the stack. Phenomenology shows that allocating more data
here addresses the probem.
The guess is that since the actual system call is getdirentries64, 64 is
what we should allocate.

Should fix the darwin/386 build.
