Hi,

After writing a routine to evaluate the size of the content of a  
folder I found that the total was WRONG!

Every file size, returned by "files function" (either detailed or  
long), over 2 gig is wrong.
Not only the byte count is wrong but the number returned is negative!  
(incrasing the error when ever added...)
On file whose exactly 2 gig the byte size is right but it is still  
negative.

And this situation is happening on MacOS and Win32 version. (as stack  
or application)

Any body has ever encounter this situation?
Is any body has a workaround?

Thanks,

Dan
