Oops... I mistakenly sent a reply to devel instead of boost-users... 
here it is again.

I assume you have mapped_file.cpp in your project already (otherwise I
don't think you could link).

Upon quick inspection, your example seems to mimic some of the test code
almost identically (i.e. in mapped_file_test.cpp), so I think it should
work...

What happens when you try to run the unit tests in the
boost_1_34_1\libs\iostreams\test subdirectory of the source tarball?

Do they pass?
