Funny thing is that there is a Perl version which uses a Win32 API
to the native calls. If you're interested:
http://www.generation.net/~cybersky/Perl/perlmod.htm
module is called memmap which uses API.pm to access the native Win32
functions. One should be able to convert it to C/C++ easily enough.
Haven't tried running with it yet.
