Hello,

	Currently mmap(2) is limited to 2GB as described in the man pages;
does anyone know if that limitation will be lifted in the near future
either in the 4.X branch or in the 5.X branch?   We have a package
called "ldm" which uses mmap on large files and we are concerned about
this limit for the future.   If someone knows and can get back to me
it would be a big help.

Thanks,

	Ted
