Cache::Mmap (which I wrote) isn't threadsafe, but should work OK in a
forking MPM. If anyone wants to contribute code to make it threadsafe
(preferably without impacting single-threaded performance too much), I'll be
very grateful. I'd do it myself, but I've never used threads, so I'm bound
to get it wrong.
