This looks like the mmap() ing problem into a sparse file I reported
earlier.  If you create a file and seek to someplace else without
writing data and then try to map those holes, your system is surely
to crash, as your program does.

Also there is a problem if you try to mmap() a file with one process
and then another process mmap() that file with a different non-page
offset, your system will freeze after you quit and do some swapping
activity.
