Fedora also adds _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE to our CFLAGS:

http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/wireshark.git/tree/wireshark.spec?id=76137e2b71a42cf2a54565ffdfc3b0dbee551ba6#n183

As does our own cmake config file:

cmakeconfig.h.in:#cmakedefine _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE

though the glibc manual:

https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Feature-Test-Macros.html

suggests it shouldn't be necessary (32-bit Linux should support the "new"
64-bit interface, right??).  IOW that LARGEFILE64 stuff should be leftover
cruft, right?
