Hello,

I wrote a simple program to continue to create a very large file (on
purpose), and even though there is plenty of disk space on that device
the program aborted with the error message "File Size Limit Exceeded".
The file size was 2147483647. I checked ulimit -a and its set to
unlimited.

Try to compile your program with the following flags:
-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS 64

Probably he meant:

-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64

.
