AFAICS Matthias' patch has the added benefit of moving setup_pager to
before large files (i.e. packs) are mapped. This helps non-COW-fork
(i.e. cygwin) tremendously. Actually with Linus' setup refactoring
this could probably be easily moved to the wrapper, but I'm too stupid
so I just deleted setup_pager from my version:-)
