Try editing setup.py and changing the definition of FILEMAP_SRC from
'extensions/expat/xmlwf/unixfilemap.c' to
'extensions/expat/xmlwf/readfilemap.c', so it doesn't try to use the
Unix-specific mmap() system call to read files.  (Presumably this
change is also needed for pre-version-10 MacOS.) I'll check in a patch
that checks sys.platform and picks the correct value.
