Hello,

This patch [finally] enables 64-bit file_ptr (aka off_t).  If nothing 
else it lets GDB manipulate i386 core files larger than 2gb.

I've tested this on:

i386 Fedora Core 1:
little-endian, 32-bit bfd_vma, 64-bit file_ptr, ftello64

ia64 RHEL 3u1:
little-endian, 64-bit bfd_vma, 64-bit file_ptr, ftello64

amd64 RHEL 3u1:
little-endian, 64-bit bfd_vma, 64-bit file_ptr, ftello64

PPC NetBSD 1.6:
big-endian, 32-bit bfd_vma, 64-bit file_ptr, ftello

with "no regressions" (amd64 had a few pre-existing failures).

ok?
Andrew
