Log:
 MFC r184342 from head to stable/7

 Add fallback when mmap fails on regular files.  Some filesystems,
 like smbnetfs, do not support mmap.

You mean smbfs?

The original report of the problem <http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2008-May/085866.html> concerned SMBNetFS - a user-space implementation of SMB <http://sourceforge.net/projects/smbnetfs>.

Ah, OK. Be aware that it's not possible to execve(2) from a file system that doesn't support memory mapping...
