Actually, it looks to me like configure will spit up if off_t is not
an integral type:
/* Check that off_t can represent 2**63 - 1 correctly.
We can't simply define LARGE_OFF_T to be 9223372036854775807,
since some C++ compilers masquerading as C compilers
incorrectly reject 9223372036854775807. */
#define LARGE_OFF_T (((off_t) 1 << 62) - 1 + ((off_t) 1 << 62))
int off_t_is_large[(LARGE_OFF_T % 2147483629 == 721
&& LARGE_OFF_T % 2147483647 == 1)
? 1 : -1];
So I think we're wasting our time to debate whether we need to support
non-integral off_t ... let's just apply Bruce's version and wait to
see if anyone has a problem before doing more work.
