While looking for a substitute "filelength()" for use under Linux, I came
upon the source for the DJGPP filelength():

src/libc/posix/sys/stat/filelen.c

Does this mean that filelength() _is_ a POSIX function?  According to its
info page, it's "not POSIX".

I am sure that Eli Zaretskii can answer his question, since the source file
has his name in it(!).

Thanks for bearing with this somewhat silly question,
Edmund.
