>Description:
When attempting to transfer a file larger than 2Gigs with scp from the
openssh port, the connection drops -- sometimes immediately, sometimes
after a significant amount of data has been transferred.
>How-To-Repeat:
Create a file > 2Gigs in size.
Run the following command:
	"scp bigfile remote-host:/some/path"

Wait for the connection to drop.
>Fix:
I expect that the fix might be to change from 32 to 64 bit
integers for any variable that includes file size.
