mmap.error in mmapmodule is a direct reference to
PyExc_EnvironmentError, whereas it should be a subclass. It makes it
provide a specific string representation, and allows to be more specific
when catching exceptions.

The attached patch tries to provide that.

Ran the regression test with this patch, all ok (on Ubuntu Gutsy).
Attached diff is the same, with the addition of the NEWS entry.
