I believe that is a limitation with that procedure.
If you are tracing your own session, use
Alter session set max_dump_file_size=unlimited;
Otherwise set it at the system level during your trace
Alter system set max_dump_file_size=unlimited;
If necessary, reset it after your large trace has completed.

Perhaps I should be more specific:
sys.dbms_system.set_int_param_in_session(p_sid, p_serial#,
'max_dump_file_size', 'unlimited');
gives:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number
conversion error
sys.dbms_system.set_int_param_in_session(p_sid, p_serial#,
'max_dump_file_size', 2147483647 + 1);
gives:
ORA-01426: numeric overflow
