Why "long" as type for size ? What is the intent to have it signed, and
why using a 32-bit type on 32-bit architectures rather than 64-bit ?
Can we run into issues if we try to map a >2GB file on 32-bit
architectures ?

The style for this comment should be:

Perhaps with a "TODO" ?

I'm wondering how we should handle size == 0 here. Should it be accepted
or refused ?

Thanks,
