[REBOL] Re: big sizes?

If I remember you sayd that, with large file size, you get negative values
(if I remember well).
It happen since the variable, when reached the maximum value, continue from
the lowest (megative) value.
Since the maximum value should be 2^32 (try it), from the negativ value you
should be able to extract the right offset to be added to get the correct
file size. Of course,
2^-31 ---> 0 ----> 2^32
this method works only for negative values.
