>Description:
The Pure-FTPd port can only be configured for files >2GB by hacking the
Makefile.  The --with-everything option isn't really what it says.
You need the --with-largefiles option.  Frank Denis, the pure-ftpd
project leader, told me in an E-mail that FreeBSD does not have any
performance problems with largefiles despite any warnings the configure
script make mention about using largefiles.

>How-To-Repeat:
Run "portinstall pure-ftpd", start pure-ftpd, try to send a file >2GB to
it.

>Fix:
