Downloading a 3.2GB DVD iso I see
Read 1558843 of 2097151 KiB of data, 2767 KiB/sec.
Am I seeing a system limit (FreeBSD) on what it thinks can be downloaded as a
file, or do I have to tell lynx something to report the actual size?
It's not implemented (that is, ensuring that 32-bit unsigned long sizes
are reported as such). lynx isn't using long-long anywhere, so 4Gb would
be the highest value that it can report.
