Ok, that makes sense -- thanks.

The only difference between struct flock and flock64 is the size of the
offset values. So, I think that __OFF_T_MATCHES_OFF64_T would suffice
here, actually. Is there any reason to do anything more elaborate than
this in place of what I proposed earlier?

    #if defined __OFF_T_MATCHES_OFF64_T || defined __USE_FILE_OFFSET64
