I've been trying to get rsync to work on AIX 4.3.3 with files > 2GB. I've looked 
through the archives and saw reference to this, etc. on HPUX but have not been able to 
come across a solution for AIX. I've tried compiling with the following flags without 
luck:

        "-D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64" 

There error I'm getting is as follows (when hitting the 2GB limit):

        rsync: error writing 32768 unbuffered bytes - exiting: Broken pipe
        rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(463)

When I run ./configure I see these lines pertaining to large file support:

        checking for broken largefile support... no
        checking for special C compiler options needed for large files... no
        checking for _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value needed for large files... no
        checking for _LARGE_FILES value needed for large files... 1
        
My filesystems are large file enabled and fsize is set to -1 in /etc/security/limits. 
Does anyone have any suggestions on getting this to work on AIX 4.3.3? The rsync 
version is (2.5.5).

$ rsync
rsync  version 2.5.5  protocol version 26
