Yes, the documentation could be more careful in its wording. As I 
understand it, the only active Linux ports that still support 32-bit 
off_t are x86 and ARM. So in the patch let's change this:

"if the code is intended to be portable to legacy 32-bit platforms."

to this:

"if the code is intended to be portable to traditional 32-bit x86 and 
ARM platforms where off_t's width defaults to 32 bits."

The idea is to let users know the scope of the problem without implying 
that all 32-bit Linux is going away. Revised patch attached.
