On a Linux Xeon server (x86_64) largefile support is (incorrectly)
not included.

configure determines:
checking size of int... 4
checking size of long... 8
checking size of void *... 8
checking size of short... 2
checking size of float... 4
checking size of double... 8
.
.
.
checking size of off_t... 8

but gets it wrong:

checking whether to enable large file support... no

To me it seems that the logic sizeof_off_t > sizeof_long
is wrong.

(I changed to comparison off_t > int and it built
with largefile support and works fine.)
