SunSoft bug 4109867.

Java cannot handle files >2GB.

(1) **API Problems which need immediate attention**

  + The method FileInputStream.available() (for disk files) returns the
    number of bytes remaining in the file as an int. The actual value for
    a large file may not fit in an int (needs a long).

  + The RandomAccessFile class has a skipBytes(int) method,
    rather than the skip(long) method which the InputStreams have.

(2) Implementation - these methods have problems:

  + java.io.FileInputStream.skip()
  + java.io.FileInputStream.available()
  + java.io.RandomAccessFile.getFilePointer()
  + java.io.RandomAccessFile.length()
  + java.io.RandomAccessFile.setlength() [JDK1.2]
  + java.io.File.length()
