From my noobish standpoint, it feels like most code shounldn't care what the page size is? Why does it need te be recompiled?

What typically tends to break when changing it?

Typically low level code and some manual fiddling with memory by asuming page size.

Everything's ok until some obscure library suddenly segfaults without any error
