(unless you have 64bit pointers of course)
Does the holder of the original problem (sorry, I've lost track of whose
question it was now)
1. have *nix or windos?
32/64 if *nix?
w/cygwin or MKS if win?
2. have a file >2GB or <2GB ?
3. have to do this once or many times?
Unfortunately, I don't immediately see a Debian pkg for Mmap.pm for Alpha,
which is the only platform I have perl64 on. Maybe next rev's perl 5.8 will
bring one.
