With VC 2013 (and probably many others) the return value from strlen() is size_t, which is unsigned. What we want here is to back up the data pointer with a signed offset. The fseek memory buffer implementation wants a signed 64-bit value, but the result of (10u - 63) promoted as an unsigned value to 64 bits is 0x00000000ffffffcb which doesn't work at all.
I suspect there are a few other places where a signed offset for fseek is used as well and anywhere it occurs with an unsigned 32-bit value being promoted to 64 bits is going to have problems.
By casting the size_t to an int the promotion of the value from 32 to 64 bits works properly. Unfortunately, this is in the base dcraw code. I suspect there might be a way to fix this in the LibRaw code. I do not believe that the define:
#define strlen(x) (INT64)strlen(x)
is the right way to go, but it would at least get the cast out of the dcraw code. Alex, I'll let you figure out a way to accomplish this with the least amount of work.
Yes, I tracked it down to that as well.
There is the odd construct (odd? For dcraw? Whatever!) that is making some interesting assumptions:
fread (make, 64, 1, ifp);
fseek (ifp, strlen(make) - 63, SEEK_CUR);
fread (model, 64, 1, ifp);

One way to get this working is:
fread (make, 64, 1, ifp);
fseek (ifp, (INT64)strlen(make) - 63, SEEK_CUR);
fread (model, 64, 1, ifp);
