This strikes me as a mistake in the Phobos declaration of seek(). The
underlying stdio fseek() function can only take longs as offsets, and Phobos'
seek() is defined the same way; however, a 'long' in C almost always
corresponds to an 'int' in D.

It's definitely a bug one way or the other, but to work around it you may want
to use offsets from SEEK_CUR instead of SEEK_SET.
