It's used in the fileplugin and directory logic. File size for example reads

EXPORT(int) FilePlugin_primitiveFileSize(void) {
     squeakFileOffsetType size;
     SQFile * file;
     int objectPointer;

	/* begin fileValueOf: */
	objectPointer = interpreterProxy->stackValue(0);
	if (!((interpreterProxy->isBytes(objectPointer)) && 
((interpreterProxy->byteSizeOf(objectPointer)) == 
(fileRecordSize())))) {
		interpreterProxy->primitiveFail();
		file = null;
		goto l1;
	}
	file = interpreterProxy->firstIndexableField(objectPointer);
l1:	/* end fileValueOf: */;
	if (!(interpreterProxy->failed())) {
		size = sqFileSize(file);
	}
	if (!(interpreterProxy->failed())) {
		interpreterProxy->pop(2);
 
	interpreterProxy->push(interpreterProxy->positive64BitIntegerFor(size));
	}
}

mm of course if your implementation of sqFileSize returns int, then oh well.

The easy way to check is to create a 3.0GB file somewhere, even say a 
2.4GB DVD image file. The use the file list window and see what it 
thinks the size of the file is. That will determine if the directory 
logic works. Of course it's always interesting to see what is 
returned on 32bit systems overlaying a 64bit file system.

Then open the file as read and seek to the end (size of the file) and 
get the file postion. In both cases the numbers you expect to use 
should be > 2GB
