>Description:

fgetpos() and fsetpos() call fseek and ftell to do their dirty work. 
This means that all FILE* operations are limited to the 2GB limit
imposed by the "long" offset type.

>How-To-Repeat:

Create a 3GB file.  Read 2.1GB into it.  Call fsetpos(fgetpos()), and
note that you are not where you should be.

>Fix:

1. Rename ftell to ftello, and fseek to fseeko, which are X/Open standard
functions that take off_t offsets.  All that had to be changed was the
prototypes, as the internals already used fpos_t.

2. add new fseek/ftell functions.

3. change fsetpos/fgetpos to use fseeko/ftello.

4. add protptypes to stdio.h.

One thing; our errno.h doesn't have an EOVERFLOW, so I used EFBIG in
ftell() for filesizes that exceed 2GB.  This should probably get fixed.
