Josh Rosenberg added the comment:

I believe explicitly calling the 64 bit version of a function is usually 
frowned upon. At least on *NIX systems, the standard solution is to define 
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 during the build process, so off_t seamlessly becomes a 
64 bit value, and the 64 bit version of appropriate functions is called and 
linked (fstat64, mmap64, etc.).
