cygwin-1.5.0-1: Problem stat-ing big file

[Markus Schönhaber]

While trying if the new support for files larger than 2GB works, I 
created a file with a size of 4.53 GB (4,869,120,000 Bytes) using a 
simple write in python. No problems here. But when stat-ing the file 
with python's os.stat or by calling stat from C as done in the little 
program below, the size of the file gets reported as 574,152,704 Bytes.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
         struct stat s;

         stat(argv[1], &s);
         printf("Size of file <%s>: %ld", argv[1], s.st_size);
         return 0;
}

What I also found interesting is the output of ls. While the size 
reported next to the file (big.bin) is wrong, the total seems reasonable:

$ /bin/ls -l /cygdrive/c
total 4755283
