	* bfdio.c: Update copyright.  Include "bfdio.h".
	(real_ftell, real_fseek): New functions.
	(bfd_tell): Use real_ftell, change return-type to file_ptr.

	file_position to a file_ptr.
	* cache.c: Update copyright.  Include "bfdio.h".
	(close_one): Use real_ftell.
	(bfd_cache_lookup_worker): Use real_fseek, use ufile_ptr in cast.
	* bfd-in.h: Update copyright.
	(file_ptr, ufile_ptr): Specify type using @BFD_FILE_PTR@.
	(bfd_tell): Make return-type "file_ptr".
	* bfd-in2.h: Re-generate.
	* configure.in (AC_CHECK_FUNCS): Check for ftello, ftello64,
	fseeko and fseeko64.
	* config.in, configure: Re-generate.
	* libbfd-in.h: Update copyright.
	(real_ftell, real_fseek): Declare.
	* libbfd.h: Re-generate.
	* elf.c (offset_vma_page_alignment): New function.
	(assign_file_positions_for_segments): Replace broken modulo code
	with offset_vma_page_alignment.
	(assign_file_positions_except_relocs): Ditto.
