Any sysop could do it I think.

I'll try.

I tried uploading the file from http://ia331232.us.archive.org/3/items/dictionnairedess00fran/ but it didn't work.

Can you explain what "didn't work" means exactly? Any error messages?

We have a upload limit, of what i don't remember, but i expect its not more than around 50mb because that is when the apache/php become sucky at handling them.

I can import this for you. Which username should I use for the import?

The person that originally reported this was: User:Marc

http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump#Upload_a_big_file

Indeed, to upload that under the username Marc seems correct.

Done.
