That is interesting. If bfd and binutils already check for largefile
support, there should be no need to define LFS_CFLAGS for example.

The attached patches does just that. I tested it by building with -m32
on linux x86-64 and checking that it can load a 32 bit plugin. I don't
have a solaris machine to test it, but I think the change is simple
enough: If the user asked for plugin support, don't disable large file
support.
