Initial Comment:
Hi,

I have experienced, that axel can not yet handle files larger than 2G. Instead, I see an buffer overflow (for example also when getting the file size.)

You should really add this support.

Message:
Hi Ionic, axel has initial support for large files in the SVN version.  Please test the SVN version and report if you find any issues.

Please see http://alioth.debian.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail

Or are you encountering a buffer overflow when you use the code from SVN?
