Subject: [Caml-list] in_channel_length fails for files longer than max_int 
The pervasive function in_channel_length fails when the file size is
too large for an int, but it doesn't raise an exception.  The code in
io.c just checks for lseek errors.  Would a check for end > max_int be
worthwhile?

long channel_size(struct channel *channel)
{
  long end;

  end = lseek(channel->fd, 0, SEEK_END);
  if (end == -1 ||
      lseek(channel->fd, channel->offset, SEEK_SET) != channel->offset) {
    sys_error(NO_ARG);
  }
  return end;
}
