That's some weird shit you've got going there...
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=2gigabyte bs=2048 count=1 seek=1048575
$ echo 2g<TAB> -> immediately completes to 2gigabyte.
$ echo $VISUAL
vi
$ echo $SHELL
/bin/ksh
$ echo $KSH_VERSION
@(#)PD KSH v5.2.14 99/07/13.2
$ sysctl kern.version
kern.version=OpenBSD 4.7-beta (GENERIC.MP) #86: Wed Feb 10 07:17:52 MST 2010
t...@amd64.openbsd.org:/usr/src/sys/arch/amd64/compile/GENERIC.MP
Tried it on an (admittedly older) i386 and sparc64 machine and got the
same. Also tried it with a non-sparse file (seek= creates sparse
files when you're writing past the end of the file) and it still
worked.
So .. uhm .. works for me [TM]
