On Linux, it's returned in the d_off field.
Googling around.... the NetBSD manpage doesn't mention any d_off field,
but it does have this:
http://nixdoc.net/man-pages/netbsd/man2/getdents.2.html
The current position pointer may be set and retrieved by
lseek(2). The current position pointer should only be set to a
value returned by lseek(2), or zero.
So maybe that's what you want.
