Looking through the source, it looks like it allocates all the
headers and then sends them together. So, the limit is really
the maximum contiguous address space you can malloc()/realloc()
or 2^31 (since postsize is an int), whichever is smaller.
In any case, these should bot be much larger than 1589Kb...

(An improved 2GB file patch is still coming, I haven't forgot. =)
