2.0.17 adds large file support (files over 2gig) with the program

        /bin/dd-lfs

which is just the asmutils dd compiled so as to support O_LARGEFILE
(since that one doesn't care that libc5 doesn't have it).  The other
dd is still there also.  Just use it to or from pipes in order to
read or write large files.
