    The argument to ftruncate is an off_t which is 64bits. The prototype for
 ftruncate() is in unistd.h...this is clearly documented in the manual page.
 If you bring the prototype in scope by including unistd.h or change the above
 to be "fd, (off_t) 0", I think you'll find that your program works as
 expected.
