One of these days we need to fix all this ... basically migrate to purely

It is all fixed. It does just work. No changes are needed.

All that is needed is '-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64' and complaining about
that is like arguing that PTHREADS support doesn't "just work" because
you have to specify '-pthread' on the command line when you compile/
link.
