I am sorry, if you still don't understand, I cannot help anymore.

Let me tell it to you a last time:

        You _cannot_ access all files even if you you compiled in large file
        32 bit mode.

        32 Bit binaries are unable to deal with files that have a time
        stamp > 2038

        You _need_ a 64 Bit Binary in order be able to access or deal with files
        that have a time stamp that is past 2038.


Conclusion: If you like to have a shell that is able to deal with all files,
you _need_ a shell compiled in 64 bit mode.
