I'm pretty sure the bug is in samba. YOu can see it is trying to restore a file of size 381769728 when the real size is 4GB + 381769728. So a 32 bit value is being used somewhere for the file size. Some time ago (samba 2.x) I wasn't able to get smbclient to restore files bigger than 2GB or 4GB. I submitted a bug report to samba in 2003, which is still open.
