No, it is not possible. As I understand the issue, it is not a limitation
of mkisofs, but of the iso filesystem itself. Ie, you can burn 9GB images,
but the files inside can not be bigger than 4Gb. It is different.
A solution would be to convince dar to use some other image format, like
XFS, for instance. Or raw.
