So yeah, I think what I proposed before would probably be fine. But now that Michael pushed the issue, it's dawned on me that we may be able to get away with supporting it better if we turn the compatability mechanism on its head and use F_OFD_*32 constants in the non-LFS case.
That's rather confusing to programmers, though. We then have: F_OFD_SETLK always 64-bit F_SETLK 32-bit or 64-bit F_SETLK64 always 64-bit (not recommended) F_OFD_SETLK32 always 32-bit Until we make fcntl type-safe, this doesn't really fly, I'm afraid.
