From "NEWS" (which is included in the source kit):
GNU Wget NEWS -- history of user-visible changes.
[...]
* Changes in Wget 1.10.
** Downloading files larger than 2GB, sometimes referred to as "large
files", now works on systems that support them. This includes the
majority of modern Unixes, as well as MS Windows.
[...]
You may expect still to have problems if the HTTP or FTP server supplies
bad file size data for large files.

Huh?
