large files in potato?

[Gregory Carl Kettler <gckettle@midway.uchicago.edu>]

How much effort would it take for me to enable support for large
(>2GB) files in a i386 potato system?  I'm running kernel 2.4.3; it looks
like I would also have to use a newer version of glibc.  If I installed a
version of glibc from testing or unstable, would it work, or am I still
missing something?
