I have to make a UEFI boot disk with a UEFI System Partition that is larger
than 65K sectors. In order to do that, I have to get the "Sector Count" in the
boot catalog set to zero.
I made the following patch to make that work:

This patch is against the 3.01 sources. The version we are using is actually
2.01 (with the fix to allow EFI partitions from the latest code and our own
Rockridge extensions), but it looks like the patch is still relevant.
FYI, we have ported CDRTools to the Stratus VOS operating system, but only use
it in house to generate distribution media for the OS. We don't make it
available to customers and version 2.01 does the job.... [That's why we
haven't upgraded.]
