I got a report from a user about "openssl sha1 <filename>" not working for 
large files on raspbian stretch.

I investigated the problem and found that when I tried to use "openssl sha1 <filename>" for 
a large (>2GB) file on Debian armhf stretch or raspbian stretch I get|an error "Value too large for 
defined data type"|

What puzzles me is that it worked on raspbian buster, and also worked on debian 
stretch i386. According to the user who reported it to me it  worked on 
Raspbian jessie. Anyone have any clues? I'm not finding anything obvious in the 
build logs or from a quick look at the source (it seems a couple of source 
files are built with large file support and the rest are not, but which files 
doesn't seem to have changed between stretch and buster).
