>Description:
	The c library function fsetpos() gets passed an fpos_t as file
offset (which is defined as off_t), ie 64 bit.
It is implemented as a call to fseek(), passing a "long" as file offset
which means that it gets truncated on 32-bit platforms.
>How-To-Repeat:
The following test code fails on NetBSD-1.5/i386 but succeeds on -current:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <err.h>

int
main()
{
        FILE *a;
        fpos_t b;
        int res;

        a = fopen("mist", "w");
        if (!a)
                err(1, "open");

        b = 0x80000001;

        res = fsetpos(a, &b);
        if (res)
                err(1, "fsetpos");

        return (0);
}
>Fix:
	In -current, fsetpos() uses fseeko(), which is identical to fseek()
except the "long" replaced by "off_t".
