This just made me feel like tooting my own horn. As Pavel Cisler said
earlier, gnome-vfs and nautilus are set up to handle 64-bit file sizes,
although this support has not undergone extensive testing; there may be some
corners of nautilus with non-gnome-vfs code that aren't up to snuff. Also,
the other packages I'm involved in maintaining (oaf, medusa, xml-i18n-tools)
shouldn't have any 64-bit file size issues.
