LFS problem???

[Mark Hounschell]

I recently upgraded to a 2.4.0 kernel with reiser and sgi's xfs
filesystem
patches in order to get LFS (large file support). I had glibc-2.0 on the
system. I was succsessful in that I could create and read a 2gb+ file.
The
only problem I noticed was ls -al bigfile gave some message about the
file
being to large to stat. I figured the was probably a glibc issue so I
installed glibc-2.2.1 then recompiled/installed the fileutils-4.0.37
package. Now I can no longer even create a large file. Anyone know
what's
up here. I used tar to create the file the same way I did before
upgrading
to glibc-2.2.1. Is there some special configure option for LFS??
