If you first mmap() the file that would probably work. In dire need of a
manpage though - I'll whip one up and send it to Andries. Probably explains
its relative lack of popularity - I'd never heard of mincore() although it's
been around since BSD4.4 it appears.

Pretty sad that it wastes 7 bits per byte though, but standards conformance
is also useful.
