There may be nothing wrong with your system, I'm just speculating.
For example on 64 bit systems which I don't have access to,
there may be a mismatch between intmax_t and off_t which is not
obvious to me? Anyway it would be good to confirm that you
can infact create a "large file" using: `truncate -s3G large_file`

thanks,
Pádraig.
