Ah, I see the issue.  The "file copy" case has the lower limit - it's
actually 35 bits or about 32G I think -  but it copies in chunks so it
can actually cope with any size file.

I've committed this fix to trunk - can you try applying this patch (I
don't have a large enough database to hand to test this with):
