Yes. As far as I can tell. Maybe I'm wrong, it really depends on the
time of the move (whether it was also between versions and some
migration has been involved automatically, then it can sort of work
without noticing). The only impact, the different size of off_t, is that
the summary will not match the mbox file, which could result in summary
mismatch and regeneration of the summary (with "native" off_t size for
the actual system).
I hope it makes sense a bit what I want to tell, and that it could make
trouble, but if you've other real experience with different behavior,
then it's possible I'm wrong here. Hmm, I'm really not sure now... :)
