I'm using mmap.
System is a slackware Linux with an "handmade" Kernel 2.6.32.24

Compiling rrdtoool with --disable-mmap I get:

noc at lowrider:~$ 
noc at lowrider:~$ /opt/rrdtool-1.4.5.002167/bin/rrdtool create tester.rrd DS:inet:GAUGE:600:0:U RRA:AVERAGE:0.5:1:600
noc at lowrider:~$ /opt/rrdtool-1.4.5.002167/bin/rrdtool resize tester.rrd 0 GROW 100                                 
Segmentation fault
