On the version of Unix we're running (SCO 3.2), you can't even create a
FILESYSTEM over 2Gb - we had to partition our 4Gb drives in two ...
(that dates the system :-)

It would have to be a 64bit file, there are no exceptions as this is a
limitation brought on by the size of a number. (I think a couple of
earlier posters had the numbers involved) therefore you literally cannot
create a file larger than 2Gb with 32 bit addressing.
