[Rd] fix for broken largefile seek() on 32-bit linux (PR#9883)

[jbrzusto at fastmail.fm]

Full_Name: John Brzustowski
Version: R-devel-trunk, R-2.4.0
OS: linux
Submission from: (NULL) (206.248.132.197)


DESCRIPTION

seek() on files larger than 2 gigabytes fails for large values of "where" on
i386 linux 2.6.13 (and presumably other 32-bit unix-like platforms).

e.g.:

> f<-file("3gigabytefile.dat", "rb")
> seek(f, 3e9, "start", "r")
[1] 0  ## correct
> seek(f, NA, "start", "r")
[1] 0  ## should be 3e+09

DIAGNOSIS

Typo: the compile-time tests for large file support use "HAVE_SEEKO" instead of
"HAVE_FSEEKO", and so fail.  

The same typo appears in one of the extra/zlib files, so I'm fixing
it in the patch below, but I haven't tested whether that actually
produces a bug.
