The root of the problem is that LFS is enabled although LFS is not
available. This is done by configure, which defines USE_LARGEFILES
globally which in turn sets LFS_CFLAGS = -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 in
Grass.make. If USE_LARGEFILES would not be defined if LFS is not
available, the diglib test would be passed. Maybe it is a good thing
to have this test not only for portability, but also for testing if
LFS is actually working.

Does

#ifdef __MINGW32__
#define off_t off64_t
#define fseeko fseeko64
#define ftello ftello64
#endif

in config.h have any effect?
