Two improvements to large file support:
- In _portable_ftell(), try fgetpos() before ftello() and ftell64().
I ran into a situation on a 64-bit capable Linux where the C
library's ftello() and ftell64() returned negative numbers despite
fpos_t and off_t both being 64-bit types; fgetpos() did the right
thing.
- Define a new typedef, Py_off_t, which is either fpos_t or off_t,
depending on which one is 64 bits. This removes the need for a lot
of #ifdefs later on. (XXX Should this be moved to pyport.h? That
file currently seems oblivious to large fille support, so for now
I'll leave it here where it's needed.)
