+ systems where the natural file size limit is greater than 2GB
+ (i.e., on 64 bit systems) the new functions are identical to the
+ replaced functions.
+
+ The new functionality is made available by a new set of types and
+ functions which replace existing. The names of these new objects
+ contain `64' to indicate the intention, e.g., `off_t' vs.
+ `off64_t' and `fseeko' vs. `fseeko64'.
+
+ This macro was introduced as part of the Large File Support

+ offsets are not generally used (see `_FILE_OFFSET_BITS'.
+
+ - Variable: _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
+ This macro lets decide which file system interface shall be used,
+ one replacing the other. While `_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE' makes the
+ 64 bit interface available as an additional interface
+ `_FILE_OFFSET_BITS' allows to use the 64 bit interface to replace
+ the old interface.
+
+ If `_FILE_OFFSET_BITS' is undefined or if it is defined to the
+ value `32' nothing changes. The 32 bit interface is used and
+ types like `off_t' have a size of 32 bits on 32 bit systems.
+
+ If the macro is defined to the value `64' the large file interface
+ replaces the old interface. I.e., the functions are not made
+ available under different names as `_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE' does.
+ Instead the old function names now reference the new functions,
+ e.g., a call to `fseeko' now indeed calls `fseeko64'.
+
+ This macro should only be selected if the system provides
+ mechanisms for handling large files. On 64 bit systems this macro
+ has no effect since the `*64' functions are identical to the
+ normal functions.
