Marek,

I think this is not an issue. According to the rfc2869.txt:

"
5.1.  Acct-Input-Gigawords

   Description

      This attribute indicates how many times the Acct-Input-Octets
      counter has wrapped around 2^32 over the course of this service
      being provided, and can only be present in Accounting-Request
      records where the Acct-Status-Type is set to Stop or Interim-
      Update.
"

As i understand from this:
Acct-Input-Octets still has a 32 bit length (4GB), but everytime it is
rolled-over, Acct-Input-Gigawords is incremented. In the end, the radius
server will multiply the 2 attribute values to get the correct ammount
of data transfered. My radius server now shows the correct data
transfers (bigger then 4GB) without additional modifications except the
patch I forementioned.
