Fixed with attached patch. The use case for this was not FETCH, but MOVE for 2gig tables. There is *no* credible use case for this (hint: MOVE FORWARD/BACKWARD ALL does not need this to work for 2G tables). It is not worth the extra computational cycles that it imposes on every machine whether they use the feature or not, and it is certainly not worth the developer time we're expending to fix this poorly written patch.
