I take the blame.  I thought we are safe to use other block sizes.  With
"a lot of user level code" in the comment I was not actually thinking that
we are affected, and I only checked some stuff in libstore if it would
accept oteher block sizes.

Should not have sneaked in such a change together with the other change.

Thanks,
Marcus
