I think it uses linux_mmap then bouncing it to linux_mmap_common.
linux_mmap_common had it right but when it mmap picked it up then 
it was wrong in my intrumentation. 

I'll flip the l_off_t type back and then instrument it more to find
out when things are going bad.  I missed the other usage of l_off_t
so I agree this is a bad change.  However, I wonder if the other
usage of l_off_t actually works right or there is a bug with that
as well?

I should be able to get something put together pretty quick and
send it for review.

Thanks,
