wget problem or me

[Greg Morgan]

I saw the announcement of wget Karsten Hopp on the Announcement list. 
..."This new release of wget adds support for large files >2Gb, p.e. DVD 
ISOs."...  I was trying to ftp the DVD ISO file.  The ftp transfer was 
hung. It may have been killed by the ftp server. I had to kill the ftp 
transfer.  I downloaded the wget rpm and used rpm -Fvh to install it on 
FC2.  wget -V reports
wget -V
GNU Wget 1.9+cvs-stable (Red Hat modified)
....
I used wget -c 
ftp://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/3/i386/iso/FC3-i386-DVD.iso last 
night before going to bed.  I woke up to
87% [+++++++++++++++++++++========>     ] 2,147,476,904   12.92K/s  ETA 
4:08:22File size limit exceeded

The complete trace of the session follows.  I am leaving for work. 
Please let me know if I need to buzilla this because it is not pilot error.

Thanks,
Greg Morgan
