As to the reason that an explicit seek breaks the checks when run on
FreeBSD, I don't know. I am dangerously near the limit of my C language

luck and desparation made it work, I guess.
I don't understand what it is

(see my earlier message module.local/testsuite) I commented the line
out and everything (in 0.36.0 and 0.36.1) work fine. I suppose FreeBSD
and NetBSD are different in this
