--- Comment #2 from Richard Smith <richard-llvm at metafoo.co.uk> ---
As of r364103, Clang now cleanly rejects input files larger than 4GB:

$ ./build/bin/clang ./hello.c -o hello
error: sorry, unsupported: file './hello.c' is too large for Clang to process
fatal error: error opening file './hello.c': 

Sadly we have too many assumptions that offsets (within a file, within a string
literal, ...) fit in 32 bits to easily fix, and it's not clear that it'd be
worth the engineering cost to support such large files.
