Hi!

I've been using avfs to browse tar archives which're burnt directly to
DVDs. It's been working great except for a bugs I've found out recently.

If there's a large file in a tar archive (no compression), like 5.5G+; then
on opening this archive via avfs, the large file shows weird behaviour.

For e.g. in one case it was corrupt, in the other (~9 GB file), it's size
was shown as 16EB.

I've tried these tests on a hard drive.
