I was trying to figure out how I missed this, and I think it might be
that the meson build scripts didn't port AC_SYS_LARGEFILES.  So if you
build on a 32 bit Linux system with meson (like one of CI's tasks, and
also build farm animal adder) then I think you finish up with 32 bit
off_t and no SIZEOF_OFF_T, because we don't do AC_SYS_LARGEFILES'
dance to figure out if this system needs -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 (or
other similar macros for AIX, Solaris etc).  I will look into that.
