Subject: Improve error message when packfile mmap fails.
X-Git-Tag: v1.5.0-rc1~64^2~14

Improve error message when packfile mmap fails.

If we are unable to mmap the a region of the packfile with the mmap()
system call there may be a good reason why, such as a closed file
descriptor or out of address space.  Reporting the system level
error message can help to debug such problems.
