:(

I'd love to know what changed such that this worked in 1.4.2 and earlier and 
not in 1.4.3, but at the moment I can't see it. I can certainly see where 
python-mmap was added in dora and master, so I can backport that fix.

(FWIW I did try to test build this before handing it back to you guys, but my 
machine ran out of disk space trying to build the build appliance.)

Cheers,
Paul
