First: you will not be able to open such huge images with digikam unless you
have huge amounts of memory. Simple reason: digikam's image editor does not use
tiling but one big chunk of memory. This is absolutely sufficient for photos.
But a file of 2GB compressed will need memory of >2GB as a chunk. No wonder it
fails.

Now to your backtraces. The XIO error indicates that anything before went wrong
and you dont get to the point where it went wrong unfortunately. 
Sometimes is helps to start digikam directly under gdb and to provoke the
crash. Or running digikam under valgrind may provide valuable information.

Unfortunately I dont have huge images to test right now. I may try to combine a
few hundred images with hugin one day ;-)
