I wanted to check this patch on NetBSD but it does not apply for me for
some reason (I've used the original source of the mail as a patch).

Is it safe to use this off64_t define? Won't there be issues with off_t
that is 64-bit on NetBSD and 32-bit on some other OSs? NetBSD uses the
libctf stack from FreeBSD/SunOS for DTrace, will that be compatible with
this GDB code? Keeping CTF support is not the highest priority for us,
as we ship with DWARF.. but compatibility is good.

Feel free to apply this patch and it will be checked with the buildbot node.
