Since you can only read 2GB (Count is a longint) in a single read

Note that the operating system only allows 2Gb reads anyway, even on
64-bit
systems.
Hi Michael,
Thanks but that's not the problem. I can't even write 2bytes to a 2GB
memory/file stream.
See: http://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=23284 for attached test case
shows simple math exactly like read/write in streams
This is another glitch that I must overcome. My sync app can't handle
zip files >=~2GB
The problem is with overflow. FPC raises an exception (as it should).
I realize this is going to affect a couple base classes too.
