Yes that makes a difference. It looks like it works without
the define. Will look some more on Monday.


With the define, starting with a newfs for the /vice/cache (48MB cache)
and doing a "cat README" of a single file then a shutdown, shows that
the file was written to the cache. but all zeros are presented to the user.

Could it be that  32 bit kernels don't support the large file?

P.S. the with a memcache works either way.
