Patch allows to use bigger than 2/4GB segment files and it is possible
changed it in source file. But how it was mentioned in this thread maybe
somethink like this "CREATE TABLESPACE name LOCATION '/my/location'
SEGMENTS 10GB" should good solution. If segments is not mentioned then
default value is used.

PS: ZFS is happy with 2^64bit size and UFS has 1TB file size limit
(depends on solaris version)
