Hmm, the patch for man-pages should be updated as well. We need
somethign as:

...
This lock  type  is  Linux-specific,  and  available since Linux 3.15.
On 32bit platform _FILE_OFFSET_BITS must defined to 64 (before including
any header files) to make these locks available.
...

Michael should I send updated patch or will you take care of this?
