Ok, this must be gcc bug. It bites even without optimization.
Rewriting lines 'search_info.curr_offset = ftell(fp)'  fixes the problem
if I rewrite them into this:
                  long ltmp;
                  ltmp = ftell(fp);
                  search_info.curr_offset = ltmp;

NB that ftell() returns long. Type of search_info.curr_offset is long
long when -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64. Simpe asignment
       search_info.curr_offset = ftell(fp)
puts trash into lhs. ftell(fp) by itself returns correct number.
this is gcc 3.4.2 Fedora3

Surprisingly, changing ftell() to ftello() does not change anything.
Casting ftell() to (off_t) doesn't change anything.
Funnily, casting ftell to (long) makes the problem go away
(as it ftell does not already return long, it does):

1628         search_info.curr_offset = (long)ftell(fp);
1644         search_info.curr_offset = (long)ftell(fp);
1651         search_info.match_offset = (long)ftell(fp);
