I was going to say "of course the only code that refers to MAP_NOCORE was
inside an #ifdef guard for MAP_NOCORE".

But I thought "let me check on that" and lo and behold, looks like there's
been a bit of a regression.

I'm having firewall issues getting in to github from here, so I'll have to
check it in when I get home, in the meantime here's a patch.

Hi LordPraslea, I've committed an update, 8f6a144, that should allow speedtables to compile on operating systems whose mmap doesn't support MAP_NOCORE.

Please give it a try.

Hi, it compiled perfectly, and the example worked:)

Thanks for the very quick fix. And keep up the good work, speedtables seems very promising I'm amazed by the things it does just by going through the files and browsing the documentation and it looks like an answer for many problems.
