I've now heard several times here that not all platforms have mmap
and/or mmap is not compatable across all platforms. I've yet to
see any solid evidence of this, however, and I'm inclined to believe
that mmap compatability is no worse than compatability with the
system V shared memory we're using already, since both are fairly
specifically defined by POSIX.
