Does OpenBSD's base utilities support 64 bit I/O?


I attempted to create a 8GB file using the "dd" application distributed with 
OpenBSD 4.2, unfortunately it fails with:



dd: count: Result too large



Confused, I tried making the size smaller, and noticed it bails out at exactly 
4294967295 bytes, 4294967294 succeeds however..



dd: count: Undefined error: 0



What are my options?



-Nix Fan.
