PATCH 1/1 libsndfile: select BR2_LARGEFILE

libsndfile requires sizeof(sf_count_t) == 8, where sf_count_t is a typedef alias for off_t. This is not true by default for all tool-chains, which leads to a runtime assert failure in binaries compiled against libsndfile. See:

http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.audio.libsndfile.devel/229

Select BR2_LARGEFILE for libsndfile so that sizeof(off_t) == 8.

No, you shouldn't select BR2_LARGEFILE. You should depend on it. See package/cdrkit/Config.in for an example. Don't forget to also add the comment when BR2_LARGEFILE is not available.
