Some better new:
1. _chsize_s does in fact seem to work in an msvcrt.dll build.
Thanks to Andres for testing that for me on Windows with a standalone
2 line program on ucrt and msvcrt runtimes.
2. MinGW always has _chsize_s, but it does more or less what I had
been proposing already if it can't find the function by the Windows
thing like dlsym, so there's no point in writing another thing
like that.
The test was with a 3G file though so it was the real function.

3. After a long time trying various ways to make it tidy and getting
incomprehensible results I eventually realised that precompiled
headers were causing strange results on MinGW/Meson builds (on CI),
due to fighting over macros with this guy:

I found it easiest to completely stop it from getting in our way
completely, with the attached. Thoughts, anyone?
Davinder, Jakub, are you in a position repro the issue and make
versions of the patch for the 13, 15 and master branches on top of
that?
Yes, Thomas, the issue is reproducible.
After applying your patch and replacing off_t with pgoff_t, the
problem has been resolved. I have attached the patches for the 13, 15,
and master. These patches include only the changes related to pgoff_t,
intended for use with the v3-0001 patch--
Hi, Thomas,
Do you have a plan for moving ahead with this?
cheers
andrew
