Probably this would also need to be changed:

        struct stat sbuf;

It appears that linux uses stat64 for this - see /usr/include/sys/stat.h
There are multiple places in util.c where stat() might become stat64()
and 'struct stat' 'struct stat64'.

I think the direction these days is to "clean up" this feature of operating
systems, where different stat() calls are not used.
