I don't believe this is a coincidence. Try stat'ing those largefiles
independently:
perl -wle 'print join("\n", stat($_)) foreach @ARGV' file1 file2 etc.
If you see undefined value warnings, as I suspect, then your Perl isn't
compiled to support large file sizes, and it's causing any stats on such
files to return undefined values.
In this case you have two solutions; ignore these files by not checking for
further information if stat returns an empty list, or recompile your Perl
with large file support (assuming your C libraries have such support).
