Yes, I see this diff that seems to be the relevant one:

The i_size is set like this in cd9660_vfsops.c:
ip->i_size = isonum_733(isodir->size);
iso.h defines isonum_733() so:
/* 7.3.3: unsigned both-endian (little, then big) 32-bit value */
static __inline int
#if __STDC__
isonum_733(u_char *p)
#else
isonum_733(p)
u_char *p;
#endif
{

Unfortunately here the comment does not match the code. I expect that
there is still going to be sign extension here, and the Alpha will still
see the file size as negative (unsigned long is bigger than signed int,
so sign extension will occur).
(one kernel build later)
Indeed. I need to change isonum_733() to unsigned int (maybe even
u_int32_t, and maybe also all other isonum_7xx() functions).
(one kernel build later)
Yes, the file looks ok now on the Alpha too:
-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel 2149588992 Oct 30 13:23 FOO
Since I read that 2.0 is now final, this looks like it's going to be for
2.1.
