I see.  It must be a bug in code generation -- a register goes crazy and causes
different errors with or without optimization.

The mmaps are fine, they succeed.  Simply, the bug is triggered earlier with
optimization enabled.

Yes, thanks.  If disabling optimization does not help, it is a bad beast. :-( Go
on using the Sun-compiled version, I'll look at it; 1.8.5 won't have it fixed.
