Fix bugs when computing length of large files.
Add overflow and write error checks. Use uint_fast32_t, not unsigned long, to do checksum calculation, as C99 says uint_fast32_t should be no slower and might be faster. Include <stdio.h> and "system.h" even if CRCTAB is defined, so that the code will compile if CRCTAB is defined. Include "human.h" if CRCTAB is not defined. (uint_fast32_t): Define if it appears that stdint.h didn't. (BIT, remainder, main, crctab): Use uint_fast32_t, not unsigned long, for checksums. (fill_r, remainder, main): Use ANSI prototypes. (fill_r, remainder, main): Omit duplicate code. (main): Use uintmax_t, not unsigned long, for file lengths. Use size_t, not long, for result of fread. Check for overflow when computing file lengths. Check for write error immediately after printing a line, so that we don't write to stdout indefinitely after an error.
