For the record: Thomas provided a test case and both ncdf and RNetCDF have
been rebuilt with support for files > 2Gb. Updated versions are now on
the CRANextras repository.

The netcdf code is rather silly: it uses 64-bit versions of seek etc when
building a DLL, not on Windows. I can rebuild it using 64-bit seek, but
could you please send me (privately) a test case?

Has anyone successfully used R to access netCDF files larger than 2Gb under
Windows?
With the version of the ncdf package that Brian Ripley provides for CRAN extras
I get an assertion failure with a 12Gb file, but not a 1Gb subset of it. The
same 12Gb file is ok with ncdf on Mac OS X (32bit R)
