This is a problem with FreeBSD. Please see
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007908799/xsh/mmap.html
And notice that the SuS does not require types.h to include mman.h.
Please bug them to be conforming.

I'm not super sure this is kosher either.. I don't have a posix spec here
though.. It does matter sadly because if the spec says thas
_POSIX_THREADS=0 is valid.. Hrm
