Large files

Description

I've got problems with compiling curl with support for large files. I don't know why off_t has 4 bytes by default. I tried to add -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to CFLAGS env.var but it doesn't help - curl wants some another _LARGE_FILES somehow defined and also needs some "special C compiler options".. I wasn't able to decrypt neither features.h with all those LFS additives nor the curl "configure".

It think it's bug that LFS by default uses 4 bytes off_t.

A quick search of the web suggests this is a bug in curl and not LFS. Here's a url:
