	This is a stand-alone module which implements a unidirectional,
	fast pipe using mmap().  Its primary use is to transfer large
	amounts of data from a parent process to its child process,
	with a buffer in between which decouples blocking conditions
	on both sides.  Control information is transferred between the
	processes through a socketpair.  See xftest.c for an example on
	how to use this module.

	note: xftest not there anymore
