In my.cnf:

[mysqld]
key_buffer_size=64M
myisam_sort_buffer_size=512MB
myisam_max_sort_file_size=10000000000
myisam_max_extra_sort_file_size=0
bulk_insert_buffer_size=64MB
...

All variables are set as expected, except myisam_max_sort_file_size,
which is set to 4GB. Only if I choose a value smaller than 4GB, or
manually execute

  set global myisam_max_sort_file_size=10000000000;

does the variable get updated. Is there any reasoning behind this
behavior, or is this simply a bug?
