My uneducated guess would be that https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/blob/41d6b10e96a1de98e90a7c0378437c3255814b16/libstdc%2B%2B-v3/src/filesystem/ops-common.h#L66 should use _wstat64() instead of _wstat and stat_type should be _stat64 instead of _stat, otherwise things are limited to 32bit.

Fixed for 9.4 and 10.3, thanks for the report.
Also fixed on master by g:9939be5758b52ed2fe1a7e56b94ce6d0f4d81580 but I'm not sure why that didn't get added here.
