>Description:
LZMA, an archiver port, segmentation faults on files > 1-5 GB in size.  I've tested this on three different xeon dual multi-core processor servers.  In each case, lzma core dumps in the exact same spot and the resulting file size for each is exactly the same.  Files less than 1 GB seem to work ok.  LZMA seems to work on any size file without a problem on the FreeBSD i386 platform.  When I spoke with a friend of mine, he says that he compresses 160GB files daily without a problem, on his i386 systems.


>How-To-Repeat:
Try to compress a file > 1-5 GB on an amd64 system.
