Possible qsort() bug with large dataset |

Hi,
I've been trying to use qsort() from glibc 2.2.4 on Linux running on an
Itanium box with a large data set. The data is gathered from an mmap'ed
file which is >2GB in size. I found that somewhere around 2G, qsort stops
sorting the data correctly. Even though qsort() takes size_t as number of
elements, which is 64-bit on ia64, I suspect some code assumes it to be an
integer.
Is this a known bug? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Akshat Aranya
