kinda looks like it to me, too... since ftpser is written in modula-2 which
is derived from pascal, it kinda makes sense to me... however, it might be
a limitation of the os/2 system calls that its making... i know that there
are some that still have some 2gig limits but not which ones they are...

here's what the documentation for ftpser v0.94 says about his development tools...

***********************************
*   DEVELOPMENT TOOLS
***********************************

Some people have asked about the compiler I'm using.  (I guess a
lot of people didn't realise that there were Modula-2 compilers
for OS/2.)  It's XDS Modula-2, OS/2 native mode version.

You can find out about this, and other Modula-2 compilers for OS/2,
at the web page

     http://www.ee.newcastle.edu.au/users/staff/peter/os2/os2m2.html

(I'm getting a little behind on keeping my web pages up to date,
but the information is still basically correct.)

The XDS compiler is now sold by Excelsior, whose home page is at

      http://www.excelsior-usa.com/

This is well worth visiting, because the XDS development team often
has "try before you buy" versions of their compilers available
for download.

FtpServer uses some of the modules from the PMOS/2 library.
If you want to know more about PMOS/2, you'll also find that on
my web pages.  Source code is available.  My web pages are at
http://www.ee.newcastle.edu.au/users/staff/peter/Moylan.html.

This documentation was prepared with IBM's IPFC help compiler.

hope that helps... maybe some one can do a bit more research and find out
if this is a limitation in the modula-2 code or possibly the PMOS/2
stuff... of course, if you're running an older version, this problem may be
fixed in the latest release... i'm sure one can also just write to peter
and ask him about it ;)
