Just to clarify, not exactly.

I ran configure without -largefile.  When I saw that the output of configure
claimed that large file support was off, I didn't even try the build, so I
don't know whether I would have gotten the warnings or not.

I think I will try running configure without -largefile, and then building
just to see.

(As you will see in a new thread I haven't started yet, I think I will be
running configure / build many times ...)
