Yes, I tried to achieve no ABI changes at all,
leave glibc structures identical to previous.
Advantage is no need to rebuild anything,
struct stat doesn't contain any 64 bit fields
(no unexpected warnings for printf format string).
Advantage of your approach is that it doesn't truncate
fields like f_syncwrites on 4GB, current spare fields
will be available to user space.
