It is possible to have more than 4GB in total, you can have multiple key buffer in version 4.1 onwards, and the 4GB limit is on each key buffer.

Extract from http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/server-system-variables.html
=========================
As of MySQL 4.1, it is possible to create multiple MyISAM key caches. The size limit of 4GB applies to each cache individually, not as a group. See Section 7.4.6, “The MyISAM Key Cache”.
