This commit adds a patch to libiscsi, to fix largefile related issues
occuring in two situations:

 * glibc toolchains, due to the way _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 is handled,
   by declaring the *64() functions as aliases to the non-64*() ones.

 * uClibc toolchains without largefile support.

First problem was visible in:

Second problem was visible in:

+Subject: [PATCH 5/5] ld_iscsi: fix largefile related issues
+
+This commit fixes two related issues in the ld_iscsi example with
+largefile support.
+
+The first issue appears when building libiscsi against the glibc C
+library, with the flags -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE
+-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64:
+
+{standard input}: Assembler messages:
+{standard input}:2774: Error: symbol `__fxstat64' is already defined
+{standard input}:2850: Error: symbol `__lxstat64' is already defined
+{standard input}:2938: Error: symbol `__xstat64' is already defined
+
+This is due to the fact that when _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 is passed, the
+*64() functions are defined by the C library as aliases to the
+non-64*() functions, because those ones directly support large files
+(i.e 64 bits).
+
+The second issue appears when building libiscsi against the uClibc C
+library, in a configuration that doesn't have largefile support. In
+this case, the ld_iscsi that tries to use stat64 or some other *64()
+functions cannot build, because such functions are not provided by the
+C library. Of course, ld_iscsi does not need to wrap the *64()
+functions in such a situation, because they do not exist.
+
+This commit fixes those problems by enclosing the *64() related code
+of ld_iscsi in the following compile time conditional:
+
+This ensures that the *64() function handling is here only if
+largefile support is available and enabled (_LARGEFILE_SOURCE64) and
+if non-*64() functions are not already 64 bits capable (in which case
+the 64*() functions are just aliases for the non-64*() ones).
+
+See also
+http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Feature-Test-Macros.html
+for more details about the meaning of those macros.
