Hi,
On x86-64, ILP32 with large off_t (64-bit) can be either -mx32 or -m32
with "-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64". This patch adds
a configure time option to choose which one to use for ILP32_OFFBIG.
Any comments?
I'm not sure what you're doing, this sounds really wrong to me and I
smell an ABI breakage. So, please help me to understand the problem
you're trying to solve.
Could you show a short example program that has a problem and explain
the problem a bit more?
Andreas
