In particular, you want to look at calls to:
lseek
stat
truncate/ftruncate
tmpfile, fopen, freopen (they create a FILE* that doesn't support
64-bit sizes)
... FILE* versions of these.
I may have missed some, this is just from trawling the libc
documentation. In general, anything dealing with file sizes and offsets
is a possible culprit.
