The file works for me, so I'm clutching at straws here. Maybe it's a 32-bit large-file support issue, or maybe it's something to do with knet vs curl. How did you build samtools/htslib? (straight make or ./configure;make?). If you went the configure route, would you please email me a copy of the config.log file? Also, what OS version and hardware are you using please?
