Isn't this what MAP_ANON is for?

     MAP_ANON    Map anonymous memory not associated with any specific file.
                 The file descriptor used for creating MAP_ANON must be -1.
                 The offset parameter is ignored.

In my car, on my clutch
But I guess it's just someone who felt a lot like I remember you.
