Disable MMAP .. it doesn't work in 2.1-R and I have my doubts if it works
in either -stable or -current. This _will_ corrupt your active file.

I had no success with the shared-active patch with -stable .. occasionally a
reader (nnrpd) will just sit there and chew ~100% of the available CPU. The
same goes for the "robustness" patch for innxmit .. don't use it either. It
displays very similar symptoms if the network connection is broken in an
untimely fashion.

I haven't had the time to check why both of these patches do simialr things
but I suspect a rapid select call loop :-(
