On AIX we have
int fseeko64 (FILE* Stream, off64_t Offset, int Whence);
which is intended for large file access for programs that do NOT
#define _LARGE_FILES
It is functionality that is available if _LARGE_FILE_API is defined,
which is the default if _LARGE_FILES is not defined.
That would have been my preferred way of handling large files on AIX
in the two/three? places that need it (pg_dump/restore, psql and backend COPY).
This would have had the advantage that off_t is not 64 bit in all other places
where it is actually not needed, no ?
