+    <civodul> i just realized that ld.so uses mmap unconditionally
+    <civodul> so executables or shared libs can't be used off a netfs-based
+      file system
+    <civodul> that's annoying
+    <tschwinge> civodul: Do you know what it takes to fix libnetfs?  I have no
+      idea.
+    <tschwinge> Never looked at it.
+    <civodul> tschwinge: implementing io_map
+    <civodul> but i think the idea is that io_map typically isn't convenient
+      for network file systems
+    <civodul> which is why it doesn't have it
+    <civodul> the GCS says "thou shall not require mmap" ;-)

     <gnu_srs> Another thing: the lsattr and chattr programs seems to be bogus
       on Hurd. Are they present since they are part of e2fsprogs?
