I don't know the answer to your question, but I *can* point out that
Python 2.0 was released in October 2000... nearly 5 years ago. I am
entirely unsurprised to learn that it doesn't handle file sizes larger
than MAXINT on your box... hardly any OS's allowed such a thing back
then. I recomend using a newer version... 2.4.1 is quite nice.
