This hampers [[hurd/translator/nfs]] usability, for example.
IRC, freenode, #hurd, 2012-03-14:
<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" ;-)
