As I am also affected by this bug, I have done a small test.

I have mounted a Windows-Share via SAMBA and copied a file with approx.
70 MB onto that mounted share. It just worked without a problem:

output of mount:
//10.0.2.2/unterrichtsmaterial on /mnt/unterrichtsmaterial type cifs (rw,mand)

copied file:
-rw-r--r-- 1 gessler gessler 82867170 2009-07-09 15:42 
eclipse-cpp-galileo-linux-gtk.tar.gz

cp command:
cp eclipse-cpp-galileo-linux-gtk.tar.gz /mnt/unterrichtsmaterial/HPS/

But, if I try to compile a small C source code (e.g. the classic "Hello World") 
I receive the following error:
cc1: error: helloworld.c: Value too large for defined data type

compiled file:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 gessler users 76 2009-11-02 14:25 
/mnt/unterrichtsmaterial/HPS/C/helloworld.c

gcc call (executed in the directory where helloworld.c is stored):
gcc -o helloworld helloworld.c

Copying a file stored in the very same directory into my HOME is also
working without problem.

The system on which I have seen this bug is a 9.04 upgrade to 9.10,
running in a VirtualBox environment, with all updates applied which have
been released for 9.10 so far.

Please let me know if I can provide further information / do some tests
in order to fix this bug.
