There could be a fallback. Almost nothing would run right without the mmap2, it would run and crash at one place or another. For all the syscalls, I noticed that they weren't implemented, and they were easy enough to implement (ftruncate64 and truncate64 were similar to truncate, and mmap2 was almost a complete cut 'n paste from the mmap that's already there, just used ctob(pgoff) for pos I believe), so I did it. My patches are to a -STABLE machine though, so there'd probably be a little work necessary in getting them on to -CURRENT unless the linuxulators have stayed the same between the two versions of FreeBSD. I had help from a few people from the lists with the mmap2, although I can't remember who helped. Anyway, I'll submit a PR once I clean up the patches a bit.
