If you want "struct stat64", make sure _GNU_SOURCE or
_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE is defined before including any system headers
(best way is with -D_GNU_SOURCE etc. in your CFLAGS) and include
sys/stat.h. However, it would be better to just use "struct stat",
etc. (With glibc, you need -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 in your CFLAGS to
make this work right; with musl it always works.)
