I've got a slightly messed up drive which I'm trying to retrieve files
off of with debugfs. One of the files is very large (>15 Gigs). When I
try to dump this file to another drive, it gets to 2 Gigs and gives me
the "File size limit exceeded" error.

Is there any fix I can use to get this working correctly? The drive I am
writing to definately can hold larger files (I created a 4 Gig file as a
test).
