That was true in older versions of AC_SYS_LARGEFILE, but in newer
versions (e.g. the version shipped with Autoconf 2.52)
_LARGEFILE_SOURCE has been banished to AC_FUNC_FSEEKO.
They are somewhat independent macros. _LARGEFILE_SOURCE controls
which symbols are visible (notably fseeko and ftello), whereas
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS controls the width of off_t.
Quite possibly it is a problem with his C++ configuration. I don't
use g++, and haven't had time to get g++ to work on my Solaris 8 host,
so I'm afraid he'll have to debug it. (C++ is a big pain on Solaris.)
