r:/mozilla\xpcom\obsolete\nsFileSpecImpl.cpp(730) : warning C4244: '=' : conversion from 'PRInt64' to 'PRInt32', possible loss of data I think the code should be changed to only assign the low portion of the PRInt64 to the result IFF the high portion is 0. otherwise, return NS_ERROR_FILE_TOO_BIG.
After some discussion, I'm no longer clear on whether this is a WONTFIX or which solution to use (change the retval type, or limit to 32 bits).
