This is partially true, mingw can support large files,
if you use native windows file functions you will not have problem at
all, using unix like functions (lseek/lstat/seek/stat/etc) you should
to modify mingw headers, because they are broken, I will try to add
correct defines/ifdef blocks, if it's possible.
I think it should work but using newer msvcrt, since it has lseek64 and
similar stuff.
