That's a strange bit of code.  The strangest thing is the memcpy.  I
can't see why you'd do that rather than write

  long result = SetFilePointerEx(handle, offset, NULL, origin);

Presumably there is a prototype in scope so offset will be converted to
LARGE_INTEGER as if by assignment.  If there is no prototype then

  long result = SetFilePointerEx(handle, (LARGE_INTEGER)offset, NULL, origin);

would do, I think.  Am I missing something?
