Well, either of you two submit a diff to the manpage and I'll commit it.
It really isn't

The same place it says char is 8 bits, short is 16 bits, and int
and long are 32 bits: in your assumptions.
It might be useful (for some definitions of useful) to have a
man page

going off-topic why should it be `signed' 64 bit and not unsigned?

Return value for lseek is off_t. -1

Currently, I use stat() and use st_size. That is limited to 4gb (32bit
unsigned int)
Uh, st_size is an off_t, which is a signed 64 bit value,
not an unsigned 32 bit vale...
