SubjectRe: large file support? (fwd)

Is this true for all platforms or do the Alpha and Ultrasparc do
better?

They could. But at the moment both ports have chosen to use a 32-bit
st_ino field in the stat structure.

Really, I'm personally more for a true 64-bit seperate set of
interfaces for these sorts of things. Then we can have 64-bit file
support coherent across all platforms.

Later,
