Yep, that's what I thought the problem was. The assumption that a file
offset will fit in 32 bits breaks on a number of systems, including BSDs
and (as you've spotted) OS X.
Changing the offending code to the following should fix the problem:
log_write(0, LOG_MAIN, "SA: Action: check skipped due to message size
(%.0f bytes) and SATruncBodyCond expanded to false (Message-Id: %s).
%s", fdsize-18, safemesgid, mailinfo);
with similar replacements for any other occasions on which printf(off_t)
occurs.
