The symptoms were a little vague, but if his data is larger than 2 GB,
and especially if it has any lines larger than 2 GB, then there are a
lot of bugs in csplit. I took an hour or so to start hacking away at
them, but it's a big job.
I'm a bit surprised that it happened only with a pipe, but maybe the
file was smaller?
