Well, using off_t and AC_SYS_LARGEFILE seems to be the recommended
practice. I don't know how printing variables of the off_t type is
solved, but I would recommend looking at tar, which supports LFS and also
prints file sizes. You should probably look at the latest alpha release
(I haven't checked if there's a CVS tree available), as the stable release
is quite old. I might be able to dig for more details in October.
