This code is as broken as the original one. C does AFAIK not provide =
for printf() to infer a %d form that matches the variant of int passed =
as argument. Therefore, explicit casting is your only choice.

rm_so/eo is of type regoff_t, itself of type int on my Suse Linux 8.1 =
x86 box. Your example reveals that your machine uses another type.

Use printf %ld (long) rm_so
or  printf %d  (int) rm_so
or  printf %lld  (what's that?) rm_so
according to your taste and expectations.

IIRC, the value is signed, because -1 is returned for nonmatches.
