Please be more specific. What configure output are you having
difficult with? I just built 2.5.2 with CFLAGS=-xarch=v9 and get:
  ..
  checking for broken largefile support... no
  checking for special C compiler options needed for large files... no
  checking for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value needed for large files... no
  checking for _LARGE_FILES value needed for large files... no

This is to be expected as -xarch=v9 enables 64-bit mode which defaults
to supporting large files (because we're using 64-bit integral types).
