Hi.
The ACE people should be informed that they are using not portable constructs:
27.4.3.2 presents the requirement for fpos (streampos, that is) and definitely
is not supposed to be convertible to size_t or any integer type. In general the
correct approach is converting it to a streamoff, like

   if (streamoff(pos) > max_size) return 42;
