It seems the configure-script is broken; it detects mmap64(), but there
isn't mmap64(). So size_t gets 32 bits and off_t 64 bits. fstat()
returns a structure with a member of type off_t, which is handed over to
mmap(), which wants a size_t. mmap() gets 0 as size, returns a
NULL-pointer, and in check_header(), where get_dword() the program
receives a segmentation fault.

Fix: change the "#define _FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64" in config.h to "#undef
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS" and recompile.
