[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/ncftp: fix incompatible-pointer-types error

[yegorslists]

From: Yegor Yefremov <yegorslists@googlemail.com>

Use only stat, fstat, and lstat structures for the correspondent calls
and let the C library macros to pick the right structure and call
depending on the supported file size.

Do we have any autobuilder errors from this?

If upstream is dead, perhaps we should instead drop the ncftp package
given how little FTP is used nowadays?

It seems there was a new upstream release, after all. See:
https://www.ncftp.com/ncftp/doc/changelog.html

Yegor, could you have a look if this new release fixes
the same issue. And if so, could you send a new patch
that just bump to this new version, please?

Best regards,

Julien.

I am on it. The issue with large file support is fixed now. But
autoreconf is now broken. Though, cross-compilation for ARM is working
with the configure scriüt alone.
