I'd like to replace the antiquated fseek/ftell routines with 64-bit routines
straight inside druntime. On Windows, there's _fseeki64:

On Linux, there's fseeko64:

I couldn't find the appropriate OSX routine, and I wouldn't be able to test it
either. I know Sean is very busy, so may I get a hand from around here?

Ideally what I'd like to do would be to take care of whatever
forwarding/aliasing is needed inside druntime to make the normal fseek and
ftell routines use 64-bit ulong. (Sean approved.) Please let me know if you
could help, thanks!
