Not that simple: The libmpg123 API also exchanges file descriptors
(mpg123_open_fd()) ... typecasting does not help you much there. The library
would need full dual mode and separate paths for 32 bit / 64 bit I/O. But,
well, I hope that the change I did at least helps the distro builds and also
makes a default custom build of wine work (when it enables large file
support...).
The whole 32/64 bit off_t mess was designed for a transitional period anyway...
that period already is long enough (OK, don't compare it to the transition
period to IPv6).
