Summary: Large size creatures cannot equip Huge sized weapon 2handed

Initial Comment:
Hi I would like to report a MAJOR error in equiping 
weapons for all Large-sized bipedal creatures with hands 
not being able to equip huge sized weapons in which 
they are proficient in already in two hands i.e both hands

See Detailed explaination below

I tested all Giants with normal greatclubs set as 
(Medium) type for unknown reason this should be Large 
sized weapon. I right clicked on item to create custom 
item then only changed weapon type size to huge for 
my Stone Giant. Then clicked on ok button.
I next went to item and click it over to Stone Giant's 
inventory tab. Next went to equip tab and clicked over 
Huge sized Greatclub. The only option that popup menu 
gave me where carried or container. I was surpised and 
thought I did make a mistake but, after I tried all Large 
Giants I resulted in the same result.  Please Fix! or 
email me at wer...@ho... if I did 
something wrong or an extra step is needed thanks!

A greatclub's a two handed weapon, so a large creature would wield a large 
greatclub in two hands, and couldn't wield a huge one without extra feats.... 
Now, if this happens with a regular club or any other one-handed weapon, 
then it's a bug.

Don't you need the feat "monkey grip" in 3.5 to wield
weapons a size category larger as yourself? I think this
works exactly as intended in 3.5, might have been different
3.0, certainly in 2nd edition.
