I don't quite remember, but weren't the need there even sooner than
you chose a partition larger than 4G?  My memory tells me it was
sufficient the full disk were larger than 4GB.  I don't think it's
unrealistic to have an Amiga with more than 4GB, do you?  If I got one
for cheap :-) I'd definitely buy one...  Today I have 1.5 GB but less
than 100 MB free (So I cannot download the X sources :-( ).  Of course
I've had to scrap most of my ADOS partitions as I can't afford more
than 50MB for ADOS :-).

You didn't answer his questions :-)  Yes there are separate 64-bit
syscalls.
