Milestone:  Boost 1.54.0                                    |   Component:  interprocess
  Version:  Boost 1.53.0                                    |    Severity:  Problem     
 Keywords:  mmap _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE _FILE_OFFSET_BITS==64  |  
------------------------------------------------------------+---------------
 This patch adds `O_LARGEFILE` to file open mode (if it is supported).

 Some info about defining `-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64` on x32 POSIX systems
 shall be added to official documentation and maybe to `mapped_region`
 doxygen documentation.

 (patch was tested on x32 Linux  on boost 1.53 and adopted for trunk
 version)
