That's not quite true. I can create files larger than 2Gb, or 4Gb for that 
matter, using

dd if=/dev/zero of=... count=...

but whith open() + write() in a C program I get

Filesize limit exceeded (core dumped)

after 2Gb is written.  O_LARGEFILE on open() seems to make no difference.

Help, anyone?
