System: FreeBSD cyclops.local.mediabase-gmbh.de 5.0-CURRENT-20020917-JPSNAP Free
BSD 5.0-CURRENT-20020917-JPSNAP #0: Wed Sep 25 18:23:51 GMT 2002 aw@newark.local

>Description:
the file size provided by the long output format mode of /bin/ls
is only 32-bit ==> 'real size' modulo 2^32 shows up in the output
(at least in OpenBSD 3.1 and the FBSD source code looks alike)
>How-To-Repeat:
dd if=/dev/zero of=gaga bs=1000000 count=10000
ls -l gaga
you will see 10000000000%(2^32) as file size
>Fix:
should be easy because the system is already able to handle big
files ==> /usr/include/... is ok
only /usr/src/bin/ls needs some enhancement
too busy to do it myself and my bug fixes are not so beloved anyway...
