Dear all,
this bug is about an off_t with 64bit different to a long int on a
32 bit machine and thus kpathsea fails
to find a file on CIFS. The configure script for kpathsea includes the
appropriate tests for
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS and _LARGEFILE. But these tests are disabled as the
"Build" file
disables large file support.
A discussion [1] (see comment in the "Build" source on [2] line ~74) on
using large file support
has already been between debian and texlive (here focused on dvips).

[2]
http://www.tug.org/svn/texlive/trunk/Build/source/Build?revision=21415&view=markup
I would suggest to coment out the line and let the configure test find
the appropriate flags
for the offset bits or to limit the option --enable-large-file to
kpathsea instead of including
the flags explicitly.
Sincerely yours
Pierre
