Which release of player software fixed the documented and observed 4096 byte limitation?

The oldest "v2" version I can find is 1.10-alpha3, which does not exhibit the bug. The CVS history on that file goes back to car v1 beta 8, and shows no significant changes. If this bug ever existed, it was fixed before v1.00 beta 8, which was probably released in early 2000, although that was before the Announcements forum was invented, so it's difficult to tell.
