I'm surprised by this, because even if the mmap stuff doesn't work, KPixmapCache
uses QPixmapCache too, so it should get icons from memory and not from disk -
that is, unless loadIcon() is called with QString* path_store not being null. You might
want to check if that's the case. But this is a bit orthogonal to the mmap question,
I was just surprised that the in-memory cache would be used -- and then found out
in the code that it's not used if the path to the icon is needed.
