Please reopen and rename this bug. It should be called "It's 2011 and
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 is still not the default." Seriously, the attempt at
coexistence between programs compiled correctly and a few that mistakenly
omitted -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 is an endless source of subtle bugs - for
instance if a 32-bit-offset program inherits a file descriptor from a
64-bit-offset one, which happens basically anytime a properly built shell runs
a 32-bit-offset program.
