Curtis Boyden updated VFS-322:
------------------------------

    Attachment: PDI-3157.patch

I have attached a patch that modifies the TarInputStream to iterate in 
Integer.MAX_SIZE blocks over the void skip(int) method if the size of a file is 
greater then Integer.MAX_SIZE.
There is also a unit test attached that generates a 3MB tar.gz that contains a 
3GB .tar containing a 3GB .txt file and verifies that the contents are correct.

I hope this is useful and I would like to see this feature make it into the 
official VFS code line. (Pelase feel free to change the impl if you can improve 
it)
