note 98757 added to function.fseek

Guys, I have always had issues with PHP's internally signed integers.. I design my own database structures and I store huge amounts of data in files (over 100 GBs) and I've always had issues doing anything with a file past the 2 GB mark. I did some testing and discovered the limit of fseek/ftell and/or any other integer operation. The limit is 2 GBs minus 1 byte.. or 2×1024³-1 (or 2*pow(1024,3)-1). I had to make a work-around because of this and split my database into multiple files to avoid this problem.. works just fine now. I didn't see the signed integer issue mentioned with this function so I thought I would, may save someone the time figuring it out, too.
