I’ve spend some more time on this issue and found that remaining warnings were 
caused by mmap-ing directories — that raises EINVAL in OSX (probably not only 
OSX, but I didn’t tried).
So i’ve skipped mmap for dirs and now restore happens without warnings. Also 
I’ve fixed wrong error check that was in previous version of patch.
