Yeah, before 5.005.<mumble> the SEEK_* defines were not included in Fcntl
- which is a little unfortunate, you think I should have known that :(.

I've been testing all the suckers with perl 5.004.04 today and all of that
should be fixed now If you get the latest version from the CVS - hey and
no warnings or anything  ;-}

I might add that it took a little hacking to get perl 5.004.04 to build on
this machine - I was going to send a bug report to p5p but thought better
of it ;-}
