How does mmap () relate to the binary / text mode flag of open ()


Does the O_BINARY / O_TEXT flag change the behaviour of mmap () ? I
red some mmap() manpages but none of them give a clear explanation :(
It looks like mmap () on Cygwin doesn't care about it and just maps
the file as it is on the disk. Can anyone confirm this ?

I want to be sure, because I'm trying to find any places in
MC where the open() call is missing the O_BINARY flag, where it would
be better to have it.

Thanks! :)
