Ok, just tested the below both on x86 and x86-64. Also verified that 4 
recent
glibcs (december 2003, january 2004, april 2004, june 2004) are ok wrt 
to the
fstat64 visibility issue. I'm beginning to think that maybe, last time I 
worked
on it, I did something wrong myself :( ...

Anyway, if nobody objects I'd like to apply the below to mainline real soon.

Thanks,
Paolo.
