Just to add to this discussion, even with an LFS enabled user space, there
still appear to be some apps which have not been rebuilt with the correct
compile options. tcsh is an example, I recall question about this a while
back, and without rebuilding tcsh with some glibc 64 bit define it was
incorrectly reporting information on files greater than 2Gbytes.
