I was able to manipulate both apache 1.xx, moperl 1.xx and wget to support large files. This manipulation was turned out to work fine so far. The attempt to apply the manipulation to a newer version has failed because the coredump. My rationale on the cause of the coredump is not related to the large file support in apache but more or less related to an initialization of the "core_dir_config" structure.
I will certainly follow your suggestion of the rebuilding.
