Wild guess:
Is the file, by anychance, somewhat over 4 gigs?
I've had a problem, years past, when a particular compression tool
blew up on files over 4 gigs, because it requires an integer
larger than a 32-bit int to hold the file offsets. I wouldn't
really expect that to be a problem on Centos 5.x, even on a
32-bit system, but one does wonder....
