 Can you provide details?

 {{{
 #define g_off_t off64_t
 #define g_fseeko fseeko64
 #define g_ftello ftello64
 #define g_lseek lseek64
 /* use _stati64 compatible with MSVCRT < 6.1 */
 #define g_stat _stati64
 #define g_fstat _fstati64
 }}}

 If you take this route, these should be functions rather than macros
 (IMHO, g_off_t is a non-starter).
