Change type of n_units, n_bytes, n_lines to be `uintmax_t'.
(dump_remainder): Move two declarations `down' into the scope where they are used. (xlseek): Return the resulting offset. (file_lines): Rename parameter, file_length, to end_pos. (pipe_lines): Don't coerce safe_read return value to `int'. Adapt tests accordingly. (pipe_bytes) [struct charbuffer] (nbytes): Change type from `int' to `unsigned int'. Change type of `total_bytes' from `int' to `size_t', since the former wouldn't always be wide enough. Don't coerce safe_read return value to `int', and adapt tests accordingly. Now that testing for a read error no longer involves using `tmp', handle that case *after* freeing `tmp'. (start_bytes): Clean up. (tail_bytes): Now that `n_bytes' may be larger than OFF_T_MAX, test for that condition and, if it's true, don't use lseek optimizations. (parse_options): Don't fail just because N_UNITS is larger than the maximum size of a file -- tail may be applied to an input stream (e.g., a pipe) with more data than that.
