indeed, nothing to do with off_t…

From my reading the perlsub manpage, the underscore in prototypes
wasn't supported in perl 5.8, while it is in perl 5.10. Its
purpose[1]:
| As the last character of a prototype, or just before a semicolon,
| you can use _ in place of $ : if this argument is not provided, $_
| will be used instead.
