Not it is the problem of your Glibc.
glibc 2.2 or higher has full LFS Large file support.
See your favorite distribution hanguot for updates.
Slackware Current contains glibc 2.2
Debian Woody/Unstable contains glibc 2.2
RedHat 6.2 has a patched 2.1 glibc with LFS support
I'm using RHL 6.1 with glibc-2.1.3-22.i386.rpm from 6.2/updates (dated
Jan, 16th).
Sounds like you need to upgrade then. :)
You need >= glibc 2.2 that has LFS
The updated glibc that is available for 6.0 6.1 and 6.2 does have LFS
patches to the extent that most stuff works.
Which you will need anyway because of a local root exploit in the old one.
It works ok for listing files, but my memory recalls that lseek may show
weird behaviour. It does not show in the QA tests AFAIK.

Every program has two purposes one for which
it was written and another for which it wasn't
I use the last kind.
