Re: Have g++ define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 on Solaris

quite the contrary: for regular largefile support, you're supposed to
use `getconf LFS_CFLAGS', i.e. -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64, while `getconf LFS64_CFLAGS'
(-D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE) enables the transitional largefile interfaces
(e.g. explicit stat64 calls and struct stat64 instead of making stat and
struct stat largefile-aware).
For all the gory details, see the lfcompile(7), lfcompile64(7), and
lf64(7) man pages:
