  Gnulib module: ftell
  
  Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  This function mistakenly succeeds on pipes on some platforms: mingw.
  @item
  This function produces incorrect results after @code{putc} that followed a
  @code{getc} call that reached EOF on some platforms:
  Solaris 11 2010-11.

  Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
  @itemize
  @item
  This function produces incorrect results immediately after @code{fseek} on some
  platforms:
  HP-UX 11.
  @item
  @code{fflush}, @code{ftell}, @code{ftello}, @code{fgetpos} behave incorrectly
  on input streams that are opened in @code{O_TEXT} mode and whose contents
  contains Unix line terminators (LF), on some platforms: mingw.
  @item
  On platforms where @code{long} is a 32-bit type, @code{ftell} does not work
  correctly with files larger than 2 GB.  The fix is to use @code{ftello}
  instead and to invoke the @code{AC_SYS_LARGEFILE} macro.
