Do you know for a fact that your ostream implemenation can handle such
a large file?  xml_oarchive depends upon ostream for all its output.  You'll
need to investigate this more deeply to get an answer.

The ifstream and ofstream implementation for gcc version 3.2.2 cannot handle
files larger than 2GB, but it seems it is possible to bind a stream to a FILE*
which enables reading and writing to files larger than 2GB.
