Umm, that's only about 1Gb, which makes it smaller than the problem file.  Did
you mean to show us a different file?

My first thought is that Dominik is on the right track.  I get

  ~: perror 27
  OS error code  27:  File too large

which suggests there is some OS limitation.  Perhaps the user running mysqldump
is limited?  Do you have any larger files owned by the same user?  Can that
user
currently create a file larger than that using another means?

The other possibility would be a bug.  You are using version 4.1.7, which is
nearly 2 years old now (released October 2004).  The current version is 4.1.20.
   If you have indeed hit a bug, your best bet would be to upgrade and try
again.  You should probably at least read the *long* list of bug fixes from
4.1.7 to 4.1.20 in the MySQL change history in the manual
<http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/news-4 (See http://ews-4.ora-code.com)-1-x.html>.
