We don't need to. We would #define FILE_OFFSET as fpos_t in that case.

My understanding was that you could define a block and declare variables in
a macro; just use a local for the temp storage of the in/out args. If this
is the only thing stopping you adopting this approach, then I am very happy
to try to code the macros properly.
However, I do get the impression that there is more resistance to the idea
than just this.
