I just tested it on an 8GB file, and although I don't get any error, it
only seeks to ~3.7GB into the file, so the version of less that comes
with 4.10 probably uses an "unsigned int" someplace.

The version you get when you build the ports/misc/less port does work
correctly, though.  If you install that, you should be okay.
