Format large Fat32 volumes in Panther

Um, why not simply format it as MS-DOS format in Disk Utility? I know in older versions of OS X, this would only format as FAT16, but in 10.3.4 at least, MS-DOS format formats as FAT32.

Do you have to use the command line to get disk utility to format MS-DOS? In the GUI version of Disk Utility for 10.3.4 there are only the options of Mac OS Extended and Mac OS Extended (Journaled) in the format menu.
