With what "fix"? Using -D_FILE_OFFET_BITS=64? This creates APR
libraries with a non-default ABI but the default soname. That is a
shooting offence for a package maintainer.

I said it last week, and I'll say it this week, and it'll still be true
next week too :) APR 0.9 does not support >2gb files on platforms with a
32-bit off_t.
