You can copy just the config.h bits that you need (_FILE_OFFSET_BITS,
_LARGE_FILES) out of your config.h, and put them in a place
("FOOlib-config.h", say) where applications can see them.
Some discipline will be required, though: all apps must include
FOOlib-config.h before including any system include file.
