other possibility is just to target the 64-bit offsets avoid the -Wconversion
fixes mostly unrelated to it.

This is a repeating issue like the checked-in cu_offset vs. sect_offset,
therefore to use something like:

typedef struct
{
  int64_t x;
} ssize64_type;

(There was some complain on reversed *_t types, therefore I used _type.))))

I will yet see how beneficial are the -Wconversion fixes, I believe not much
so the ssize64_type way may be at least easier to implement.

BTW it would be all sure much easier with C++ and its operator overloading.
