The day job requires some focus for a few days. I was hoping to revisit 
the mmap output end of next week during the holidays here. Make mmap 
optional -- default to write with an option for mmap. Add some builtin 
detection to do the right thing if the user did not specify a preference 
-- system wide tracing should flip to mmap, system wide faults should 
write. Log a warning to the user if the requested option goes against 
that. If Peter or Ingo have other thoughts or ideas to the contrary I'd 
love to hear them before the next iteration.
