mmap() is not available in DJGPP. Period.

Those Linux-borne programs will either have to get along without it,
or they can't be ported. Note: just because the script *checks* for
mmap() usually doesn't mean that the programs won't work without it,
yet. If it really must have mmap(), the configure script will
terminate with an appropriate message.
