This is becoming a common sort of question with the new EMBL
release.

EMBOSS (on many operating systems) can cope with files >2Gb
if it is configured with the   --enable-large    option.
Of course you need to  'make clean' and 'make' again
afterwards.

It certainly works for RedHat and SuSE so it may well do
so with Slackware. If it does then you could use 'seqret'
to do the fasta conversion.
