Huge array of variable length strings
#6

     The most likely cause of such a bug is some one using a signed 32 bit integer in the code when they should be using an unsigned 32 bit integer or a 64 bit integer.   The clue is it happens at 2gb (which is the largest positive value of a signed 32 bit integer).    

      I ran into a bug in the _SND sub system that hits on the same limitation.   _SNDSETPOS will fail on Wave files > 2gb's in size.
