I adopted a more complex fix, which is

1. To verify that <config.h> was already included before defs.h in every case
2. To ensure that config.h is the first thing #included

We automatically verify (1) but not (2); I can't immediately think of a way to automate the verification of (2).

See the attached patch.

(file #12989)

Compiler-error is "conflicting types for 'fgetpos64'"
as well as for 'fseeko64', 'fsetpos64' and 'ftello64'
each within the gcc-fixincludes-copy of stdio.h.

Problem is that in find/tree.c <stdio.h> gets included before "config.h" somehow through <assert.h> or <stdlib.h>.

Thing is that "config.h" defines _LARGE_FILES, which changes these declarations, but they already have been declared while _LARGE_FILES was undefined because of the first include before "config.h".

The simple fix is to include "defs.h" as the very first header-file in find/tree.c.

For exact error (and 2line-patch if required) you may look at

Thanks!
