Huh?
I'm not removing any padding. Hum, the patch format may be
playing tricks with you. Look closer at the patch. I'm moving
the padding from *outside* the #ifndef/#else __USE_FILE_OFFSET64
to *inside each arm*. Maybe a "cvs diff -up" would have been
clearer in this case. (My default is -cp as per GCC rules.)
Is that what got you or are there other issues?
