Calmly replying to myself.

All I had to do was add
#define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64
to the beginning of the file. Now it seems to work. This is probably not 
the best way to do it, so if someone can tell me the correct way to do 
this, I will fix it, and then commit changes to the CVS (time I 
contributed something back again).
