16 This function is missing on some platforms:
17 MacOS X 10.5, FreeBSD 6.0, NetBSD 5.0, OpenBSD 3.8, Minix 3.1.8, AIX 5.1, HP-UX 11,
18 IRIX 6.5, OSF/1 5.1, Solaris 10, Cygwin 1.5.x, mingw, Interix 3.5, BeOS.
20 On platforms where @code{off_t} is a 32-bit type, this function may not

22 The fix is to use the @code{AC_SYS_LARGEFILE} macro.
