Hi Luigi,

It looks to me like the --enable-large-files trick simply adds
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 to the compiler flags, so it seems relatively
harmless.

I don't mind adding it to the squid-2.5 branch. Anyone else?

However, I still think that squid users will be happier in the long run if
they install a simple cron job to rotate their log files instead of letting
them get to 2GB in size.
