Well, we are doing something odd here but it might not be what you
think.

We currently use fseeko() only in pg_dump.  We define C code in /port
for some Unix platforms that don't support fseeko.

For platforms that don't support fseeko and don't have /port support for
it we just use fseek() in port.h:

        #ifndef HAVE_FSEEKO
        #define fseeko(a, b, c) fseek(a, b, c)
        #define ftello(a)       ftell(a)
        #endif

but then for Win32 we #undef fseeko and redefine it:

        #ifdef WIN32
        #define pgoff_t __int64
        #undef fseeko
        #undef ftello
        #ifdef WIN32_ONLY_COMPILER
        #define fseeko(stream, offset, origin) _fseeki64(stream, offset, origin)
        #define ftello(stream) _ftelli64(stream)
        #else
        #define fseeko(stream, offset, origin) fseeko64(stream, offset, origin)
        #define ftello(stream) ftello64(stream)
        #endif
        #else
        #define pgoff_t off_t
        #endif

Clearly this code should be moved into port.h, I think.
