+** prshma.h -- NSPR Anonymous Shared Memory
+**
+** NSPR provides an anonymous shared memory based on NSPR's PRFileMap
+** type. The anonymous file-mapped shared memory provides an inheritable
+** shared memory, as in: the child process inherits the shared memory.
+** Compare the file-mapped anonymous shared memory to to a named shared
+** memory described in prshm.h. The intent is to provide a shared
+** memory that is accessable only by parent and child processes. ...
+** It's a security thing.
+**
+** Depending on the underlying platform, the file-mapped shared memory
+** may be backed by a file. ... surprise! ... On some platforms, no
+** real file backs the shared memory. On platforms where the shared
+** memory is backed by a file, the file's name in the filesystem is
+** visible to other processes for only the duration of the creation of
+** the file, hopefully a very short time. This restricts processess
+** that do not inherit the shared memory from opening the file and
+** reading or writing its contents. Further, when all processes
+** using an anonymous shared memory terminate, the backing file is
+** deleted. ... If you are not paranoid, you're not paying attention.
+**
+** The file-mapped shared memory requires a protocol for the parent
+** process and child process to share the memory. NSPR provides two
+** protocols. Use one or the other; don't mix and match.
+**
+** In the first protocol, the job of passing the inheritable shared
+** memory is done via helper-functions with PR_CreateProcess(). In the
+** second protocol, the parent process is responsible for creating the
+** child process; the parent and child are mutually responsible for
+** passing a FileMap string. NSPR provides helper functions for
+** extracting data from the PRFileMap object. ... See the examples
+** below.
+**
+** Both sides should adhere strictly to the protocol for proper
+** operation. The pseudo-code below shows the use of a file-mapped
+** shared memory by a parent and child processes. In the examples, the
+** server creates the file-mapped shared memory, the client attaches to
+** it.
+**
+** First protocol.
+** Server:
+**
+**   fm = PR_OpenAnonFileMap(dirName, size, FilemapProt);
+**   addr = PR_MemMap(fm);
+**   attr = PR_NewProcessAttr();
+**   PR_ProcessAttrSetInheritableFileMap( attr, fm, shmname );
+**   PR_CreateProcess(Client);
+**   PR_DestroyProcessAttr(attr);
+**   ... yadda ...
+**   PR_MemUnmap( addr );
+**   PR_CloseFileMap(fm);
+**
+**
+** Client:
+**   ... started by server via PR_CreateProcess()
+**   fm = PR_GetInheritedFileMap( shmname );
+**   addr = PR_MemMap(fm);
+**   ... yadda ...
+**   PR_MemUnmap(addr);
+**   PR_CloseFileMap(fm);
+**
+**
+** Second Protocol:
+** Server:
+**
+**   fm = PR_OpenAnonFileMap(dirName, size, FilemapProt);
+**   fmstring = PR_ExportFileMapAsString( fm );
+**   addr = PR_MemMap(fm);
+**    ... application specific technique to pass fmstring to child
+**    ... yadda ... Server uses his own magic to create child
+**   PR_MemUnmap( addr );
+**   PR_CloseFileMap(fm);
+**
+**
+** Client:
+**   ... started by server via his own magic
+**   ... application specific technique to find fmstring from parent
+**   fm = PR_ImportFileMapFromString( fmstring )
+**   addr = PR_MemMap(fm);
+**   ... yadda ...
+**   PR_MemUnmap(addr);
+**   PR_CloseFileMap(fm);
+**
+**
+** lth. 2-Jul-1999.
+**
+** Note: The second protocol was requested by NelsonB (7/1999); this is
+** to accomodate servers which already create their own child processes
+** using platform native methods.

+** PR_OpenAnonFileMap() -- Creates an anonymous file-mapped shared memory
+**
+** Description:
+** PR_OpenAnonFileMap() creates an anonymous shared memory. If the
+** shared memory already exists, a handle is returned to that shared
+** memory object.
+**
+** On Unix platforms, PR_OpenAnonFileMap() uses 'dirName' as a
+** directory name, without the trailing '/', to contain the anonymous
+** file. A filename is generated for the name.
+**
+** On Windows platforms, dirName is ignored.
+**
+** Inputs:
+**   dirName -- A directory name to contain the anonymous file.
+**   size -- The size of the shared memory
+**   prot -- How the shared memory is mapped. See prio.h
+**
+** Outputs:
+**   PRFileMap *
+**
+** Returns:
+**   Pointer to PRFileMap or NULL on error.
