For what it's worth, OS X, being 4.4-Lite-based, has a 64-bit off_t even on
32-bit platforms, and thus supports large files by default in the
open()/close()/read()/write()/lseek() API; Linux has, by default, a 32-bit
off_t on 32-bit platforms, and you have to explicitly request large file
support on those platforms.

I don't know whether that explains why you weren't able to make the problem
happen on OS X or not.  If it happens on, say, 32-bit Linux or Solaris, but not
on 32-bit OS X or *BSD, that suggests that it might explain it.
