Err, it is somehow possible (I'd have to check into that). However most
sizes in setup are stored in a size_t, which is an unsigned int AFAIK.
And yes that means that we are currently limited to installs of up to
4GB. :(

There may be some transitional states through int and/or ssize_t
(signed) which could cause problems, so we should try to find if this is
the case.
