Thanks for clarifying the issue.

As you implicitly point out, GCC knows the type of INT64 and defines
the macro __INT64_TYPE__ .  The revised code can use that directly,
such as:

#if defined(_GLIBCXX_HAVE_INT64_T_LONG) \
   || defined(_GLIBCXX_HAVE_INT64_T_LONG_LONG)
  typedef __INT64_TYPE__   streamoff;
#elif defined(_GLIBCXX_HAVE_INT64_T)
  typedef int64_t                     streamoff;
#else
  typedef long long                 streamoff;
#endif

Are there any additional issues not addressed by that approach, other
than possible further simplification?

That avoids the ABI break that Jakub pointed out. But I think we can
simplify it further, as in the attached patch.

This uses __INT64_TYPE__ if that's defined, and long long otherwise. I
think that should be equivalent in all practical cases (I can imagine
some strange target where __INT64_TYPE__ is defined by the compiler,
but int64_t isn't defined when the configure checks look for it, and
so the current code would use long long and with my patch would use
__INT64_TYPE__ which could be long ... but I think in practice that's
unlikely. It was probably more likely in older releases where the
configure test would have been done with -std=gnu++98 and so int64_t
might not have been declared by libc's <stdint.h>, but if that was the
case then any ABI break it caused happened years ago.
