Created attachment 44650 [details]
Allows uml_moo to work with large files

This new ebuild allows uml_moo to work properly inside usermode-utilities

changed this
 emake CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -DTUNTAP -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -g -Wall" all

to this
 emake CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -DTUNTAP -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE
-g -Wall" all

@dang: would like to have a look by chance?

I've added 20060323 to portage.  It has been reported that this fixes this problem, but I don't have any huge cow files to test with at the moment.  Could you try it?  I'd rather not make so drastic a change to the stable version without a bump, and this version has many other fixes in it.

Marking fixed.
