   //!dependant and it should not be changed unless the user needs to
   //!specify special options.
   //!
   //!In Windows systems "map_options" is a DWORD value passed as
   //!"dwDesiredAccess" to "MapViewOfFileEx". If "default_map_options" is passed
   //!it's initialized to zero. "map_options" is XORed with FILE_MAP_[COPY|READ|WRITE].
   //!
   //!In UNIX systems and POSIX mappings "map_options" is an int value passed as "flags"

   //!if that option exists and to zero otherwise. "map_options" XORed with MAP_PRIVATE or MAP_SHARED.

   //!In UNIX systems and XSI mappings "map_options" is an int value passed as "shmflg"
   //!to "shmat". If "default_map_options" is specified it's initialized to zero.
