Looking at system C includes, I would propose getting rid of off_t from all API
calls (replace it by goffset or gint64 or so).
It makes binaries using shared gmime library incompatible between
distributions, even if they use the same soname.
To fix it correctly, I would propose:
1. Replace off_t by any other type which is not dependent on C flags in all (or
all exported) functions.
or
2. Exhibit large file support in library name (e. g. libgmime-off_t_8-2.0.so.2
x libgmime-off_t_4-2.0.so.2) and fix original bug.
