[From a post to python-help]
Related to this is that zipfile raises an exception on creating a file 
that's too big. It seems that the limitation should be documented or 
removed.
This is from the message to python-help:
python version 4.2. the class zipfile in the module zipfile is unable 
to .close() a file bigger than
2^32-1 (or whatever) bytes.
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "bk.py", line 12, in ?
 zf.close()
 File "C:\Python24\lib\zipfile.py", line 503, in close
 zinfo.header_offset)
OverflowError: long int too large to convert to int
