Linux 2.2 + borken mmap() round 1

The following is just a simple 'if ANON|SHARE is broken, disable
compression'.  We don't have time for fancy stuff until we  have time for
long term testing.

I have one friend of mine testing this.  Can I get a few other people to
test.  This is against --current, but maybe work against 3.3p1.  Unsure.

BTW.. those on NeXT platform (if you have autoreconf) should also test
this.  this should solve your problem also.
