This should be fixed with the added largefile support in Octave.

Can you try with a more recent version of Octave, either 3.6.4 or the current development version, to see if the error is still present?

I have tried to use dir for a directory that is situated on a large (7TB) file system mounted via NFS. dir fails, because stat fails with the message

warning: dir: `stat (VeryLongFileName)' failed: Value too large for defined data type

This error message is related to inode numbers that exceed 32bit,
which can easily checked by the Linux stat command.

Hower, opening and reading files with the standard commands fopen, fread and fclose will work normally.

I did not find any entry about this error in the ChangeLog up to
version 3.4.2
