Tim Peters 5ebfd36afa CVS patch #477161: New "access" keyword for mmap, from Jay T Miller.
This gives mmap() on Windows the ability to create read-only, write-
through and copy-on-write mmaps.  A new keyword argument is introduced
because the mmap() signatures diverged between Windows and Unix, so
while they (now) both support this functionality, there wasn't a way to
spell it in a common way without introducing a new spelling gimmick.
The old spellings are still accepted, so there isn't a backward-
compatibility issue here.
