Sorry, I've been really unclear, let's try to re-explain:

yes, it's as you said, with PROT_NONE it ends in a segfault.
The thing I missed to say is that I didn't call SetPageReserved(), that 
makes me see only zeroes, whatever PROT_{READ,WRITE} I used.

Make a check with the code you provided helps a lot ;)
Thanks, bye.
