If adding explicit casts to (off_t) helps, it sounds to me like
function prototypes aren't used properly. Are oskit and oskit-mach
usually compiled with -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wstrict-prototypes?

I get a little annoyed everytime I have spent a few hours tracking
down a bug, and then it turns out that the compiler would have found
it for me if I had only asked it.
