Details:
It seems that -[NSData initWithContentsOfFile:] (and +dataWithContentsOfFile:,
-initWithContentsOfMappedFile:, etc as consequence) will fail with large files
on 32bit systems.
The standard GNU way of dealing with this is to use gnulib which provides
replacements for fseeko/ftello with all possible workarounds. Not doable
currently, so the attached patch enables such support only on systems that
have these functions available (most systems these days).
Unfortunately I was not able to test it as none of my machines has enough
memory and I get (expected) NSMallocException...
