Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:

• This function is missing on some platforms: MacOS X 10.4, NetBSD 5.0, OpenBSD 3.8, Minix 3.1.8, AIX 5.1, IRIX 6.5, OSF/1 4.0, Solaris 11 2010-11, Cygwin, mingw, MSVC 9, Interix 3.5, BeOS.
• On platforms where off_t is a 32-bit type, this function may not work correctly on files larger than 2 GB. The fix is to use the AC_SYS_LARGEFILE macro.
