Hi Guys,
I applied this patch and tried to sort the 11GB file. This time it
sorted correctly and created the temporary files over 2GB as follows....
[udmdwdev]-root > timex ../../rfx/bin/gsort_cc_patch01 -T . -k 1,1 -k 2,2 -t
"|" rfx63737_unsorted.dat.bu -o sort.3

So, where do we go from here ? Would this code change be incorporated in the
next release ?

Does the following patch to lib/tempname.c fix things for you?
