@Paul-St-Young is mmap really needed?

I wonder if this is the root cause? Are other mmaps done successfully in other test scripts?

The two failing tests both include a line of mmap.

@ye-luo mmap is not strictly necessary. It just has some nice utilities for text parsing. It would be totally fine to rewrite the script to parse ascii text.
