  Actually, it may well need to do some behind-the-scenes bookkeeping in order
to support fork semantics (which don't come naturally to windows!).  I'll
generate a patch that enables the dlmmap/dlmunmap functions on Cygwin;
sticking to the standard POSIX APIs is the best thing to do.  Patch withdrawn;
respin to follow.  Thanks for the advice.
