BTW: The original bug mentioned EOVERFLOW and in hindsight I see that my patch
doesn't address it, but EOVERFLOW is not the bug I'm seeing. I'm seeing the
max size check fail.
--- look.c:145
if (sb.st_size > SIZE_T_MAX)
errx(2, "%s: %s", file, strerror(EFBIG));

$ strace look foo the.player.4.mpg 2>&1 | tail -n 7
open("the.player.4.mpg", O_RDONLY) = 3
fstat(3, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=4045771844, ...}) = 0
write(2, "look: "..., 6look: ) = 6
write(2, "the.player.4.mpg: File too large"..., 32the.player.4.mpg: File too
large) = 32
write(2, "\n"..., 1
) = 1
exit_group(2) = ?
