Comment:
So can one of you PLEASE grab the new src and compile ...
It's open source; why not do so yourself? Sure, it would be a "nice to have",
(and you might like it yesterday), but it's right at the bottom of my priority
pile.

It's open source; why not do so yourself? Sure, it would be a "nice to have",
(and you might like it yesterday), but it's right at the bottom of my priority
pile, (especially since you've chosen to file it as an issue, and not the
"feature request" that it should have been).
how was I supposed to know to use "Feature Request" instead of issues...
It didn't quite seem like it belonged there but... hmm... ok corrected!
and while I could compile it myself... it more appropriate to have the package
updated properly..
I have had only two requests to you in all this time... updating zLib and your
MinGW-Get GUI with suggestions..

Ticket details:
Although 32-bit Windows has supported operations on files larger than 2GB,
since at least WinNT4 and Win98, (and possibly earlier), Microsoft did not
introduce the _fseeki64() and _ftelli64() APIs until MSVCR80.DLL, (and
subsequently retrofitted it to MSVCRT.DLL, from WinVista onwards); prior to
this, random access support in large files was provided through lower level
APIs such as _lseeki64(), or native Windows API functions.
As noted in this mailing list query, and this subsequent follow-up thread, it
is practicable to emulate the _fseeki64() and _ftelli64() APIs, such that they
become available on legacy versions of Windows, which pre-date the formal
introduction of these APIs by Microsoft; however, previous efforts to do so may
not have been entirely robust. Hopefully, the attached patch will do a better
job.
