Ouch!  That's a good illustration of the harm that can be done by
exposing data structures.

The attached patch adds a new `scm_t_off' type, whose definition does
not depend on the application's `_FILE_OFFSET_BITS' value.  Can you
confirm that it allows you to build Guile with 32-bit offsets and Snd
with 64-bit offsets (or vice versa)?

Neil: Does this sound like the right approach?

Thanks,
Ludo'.
