Hi,

Sizes are stored in a signed type for the cd9660 fs, hence we can't
see >= 2G files. This is an old BSDism, and as I checked, it's been
weeded out from (or never existed in) other OSS Unices, except for
FreeBSD.
why wouldn't we use uint64_t's?  otherwise there is the same problem for 
4GB files, or does iso9660 not support files > 32bits anyways?

cheers
