At this point, me->me_dev contains a wrongly packed (32-bit) device number, which forces the find_mount_point() code path (causing other unpleasantries).  The following patch against coreutils v8.5 fixes the problem:

Thanks for the report.  Yes, this needs to be folded into gnulib, but it also needs an m4 check for getextmntent, and it would be nice to get by with less in-function #ifdefs.
