I blame your handicrafted config-mac.h file for this weirdness! :-) If you go
the configure-route, this is not how it'll work.

In all modern systems, curl_off_t is 8 bytes and holds 64 bits. long is 32
bits on all 32 bit computers (such as those that run Mac OS X).

Passing a long to a libcurl option that expects a curl_off_t might work, or it
might not (it basicly depends on the byte order of the platform) and vice
versa.
