try to tweak fileobject.c:

/* a portable ftell() function
   Return -1 on failure with errno set appropriately, current file
   position on success */
static Py_off_t
_portable_ftell(FILE* fp)
{
    return ftell(fp);
}

Andreas

Thank you for your advice but I got the same error.
I also tried to make it use ftello(fp); but no go ...

So I really don't have any good ideas ...
