Summary: Error reading files larger than 4GB

Initial Comment:
When reading test files larger than 4GB, sometimes two lines are merged into a single line. The problem is reproducible on Windows 2K SP4 with both Python 2.4 and 2.5. It does not appear to occur on Linux.

I have attached a test case that creates the problem.
