Nginx + Large File Support

Darn. I had modified my build to pass in the output of 'getconf LFS_CFLAGS', 'getconf LFS_LDFLAGS', and 'getconf LFS_LIBS' to make it more portable. 

Well, if that's the case any idea why Nginx would accept a post in excess of 2GiB in size even when the 'client_max_body_size' is set sufficiently?

I've run into an issue where a co-worker is trying to upload a file in excess of 2GB in size and it's failing. I've modified the compilation options to support large files and we're going to test it. I'm just wondering if anyone had tried it and had any wisdom they would mind sharing.
