  Gnulib module: truncate
  
  Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  This function is missing on some platforms:
  mingw, MSVC 14, Android 4.4 with @code{AC_SYS_LARGEFILE} in effect.
  @item
  On platforms where @code{off_t} is a 32-bit type, this function is not
  applicable to arbitrary lengths for files larger than 2 GB@.  The fix is to
  use the @code{AC_SYS_LARGEFILE} macro.
  @item
  This function does not fail when the file name argument ends in a slash
  and (without the slash) names a non-directory, on some platforms:
  AIX 7.2.
