off64_t requires _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE on Linux/glibc which still likes
to make applications not handle large file offsets and inodes by default,
something which 4.4BSD solved 20 years ago.
We have no intent in supporting non-large file applications in
xfsprogs, so I think the right thing is to ensure that your configure
checks defines _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE. I'm pretty sure the applications
actually already do that, and it's just the configure machinery that's
lazy.
