The OS/2 port of mmap was done using Sibyl (Pascal) and the source is
not available, but maybe Maurilio Longo (the author of the library)
gives you the sources. Contact him on the OS/2 mSQL mailing list,
instructions on how to subscribe at http://www.blnet.com/msqlpc

You could also try Joshua Dinerstein, author of the Windows port, to see
if he can help you. I can't remember if he built a mmap using only CLIB
or if he used Win32 Memmory-Mapped file API. At my mSQL site you can
find a link to Joshua home page.

PS: please keep me informed about your progresses, so I can post some
notes on The mSQL PC Home Page.
